Contact LG @ 1800 243-0000 this is a known issue and they may help you out.

The drying vent needs to be updated if this is a couple years old amoung other items such as the wire harness and inner door liner..

Lg p/no 3850dd3006a leaks at door

Every dishwasher door has a door seal. If the dishwasher is leaking water, it might be that the door seal is defective or worn out. Try closing the dishwasher door on a sheet of paper and see if the door seal is making good contact all the way around the door. If not, replace the door seal. If the door seal is good or has been replaced and there is still a leak check the door hinges. If the hinges are bent the door will not close properly and the hinges will need to be replaced

LG Dishwasher LDS5811bb. Water is leaking out

The dishwasher may not be levle side to side and front to back.
Se the installation instructions or go www.lgusa.com
they may have the instructions on line.

This will cause leakage at the door.

If the leak is @ the bottom left it may be from the drying vent assembly.
The vent would need to be replaced with an updated vent assy.

Low water level

One of 2 problems is causing this.  Either you have a bad float switch which is located on the left side of the dishwasher, or you have a water leak and is losing water when it is in the wash mode.  You will need to have it checked by a qualified LG technician.

Lg - LDS5811ST Dishwasher OE Error Code

hi
The most common cause of an OE error code on a modern LG dishwasher is:
1. Blocked drain hose
2. Obstruction in the sump area (beneath the filter, which needs to be removed to check for onstruction)
3. Failing drain motor. 
else you need to REPLACE THE PCB POWER CONTROL BOARD
