UE stands for Unbalance Error. If the washer has tried to spin numerous times, tried to redistribute the load itself between each attempt, and still not been able to get the load up to full speed without experiencing an off balance condition, it will finally stop and display the UE code. This is most often the case when a heavy / bulky item(s) are being washed and the spin speed is set very high. When washing these items, set the spin speed to low. The machine will most likely be able to handle that. If you want them spun out faster, then AFTER the washer has made it through the cycle on low speed spin do this: Turn the power back on. Without selecting any cycle, just press the spin speed button, selecting the next higher spin speed. Now press start, and your washer will just do a 14 minute or so pump and spin.
For super wet heavy loads, if you cannot even get the washer to go through a cycle on the lowest spin speed, you may have to wring a bunch of the water out of the clothes by hand before doing the 14 minute cycle thing.

LG top load washer has a 'UE' Error.

Question edited for clarity

An LG washer displaying the UE or uE error code means that the load in the washer is unbalanced. ... When the uE error code is displayed, it means that the washer is trying to resolve the issue. The washer will fill with water to try to balance the load. It will then drain and try to spin again.

I washed a comforter and my LG washer is flashing UE in the window. I took the comforter out (still soaking wet), and tried to redistribute it. Still reading UE, and i did this 3x. HELP!!

You did not post the model number but if this is the top load model, pull it away from the wall and see if the back of the machine that has a galvanized cover, is dented. If the machine walked and thumped because of being off balance, the internal sensors may be contacting the cover.

What does"ue " mean?

UNBALANCE ERROR - Display shows UE.Laundry load is unbalanced, manually loosen any tangled laundry.
If only one item of clothing needs washing, such as a bathrobe or jeans, the final spin result might be unsatisfactory and an UE error message will be shown in the display. Unbalance error is cleared by POWER switch OFF and back ON.

Hi, UE error means unbalanced load, loosen the washing and try again, if the load is to heavy take out some of the washing and spin in 2 lighter loads.

UE Happens if you overload the washing machine.

Error reading

Hi,

An UE Error Code is indicative of a "Unbalanced Error". This indicates that the drum is not spinning in a smooth rotation. It may be necessary to rearrange the load in the drum

If you tried out all things and it did not work,
then I would say you have a bad motor. The motor has a tach in it that tells the control board if the load is balanced. If the tach is bad in the motor then it will always think the load is unbalanced.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

UE what does that mean?

Your load is too small or out of balance. Rearrage your load if out of balance or add 1 or 2 similar items to balance the load.

Ue error code on the display

For "ue" an unbalanced load is sensed three times, re-adjust your load in the machine.

For e1, it could be a water sensor problem. Check to see if the inlet valve is okay and not clogged, water shd be in good pressure. If this is okay, open up behind after taking the plug off the wall. There is a thin tube coming from the switch area to the outlet pump area; disconnect this from the top carefully and blow into it, it should be free; if it is clogged you will hav a water level problem. Unblock and refit carefully.
