Hi.
If there is no spin, c licking noise before spin may come from a relay in control module, from lid switch motor, or from the fuzzy logic control unable to start drain pump. This last problem may occur because of residual water inside the machine tub.
You should run a diagnostic cycle. The procedure is explained in user manual. LG should use the following:
Press Spin and Temp. and Power buttons simultaneously to enter diag. mode.
At the end of the process you should get an error code that will tell you what the problem is. If there is a code already, then please let us know the code.
Hi, if your washer doesn't pump water out or spin, check to see if the motor is running, then proceed as follows:
If the motor is running, your washer probably has a frozen pump pulley or a broken pump belt. To check the pulley, remove the pump from the washer and try to rotate the pulley manually. If it doesn't turn freely--if it's frozen or stiff--replace it. If the pump belt is broken or looks quite worn, replace it--but be sure to check the pump pulley before you change the belt.
If the motor isn't running, the lid switch may be defective. If so, the washing machine can't spin and may not function at all. The switch is inside the washing machine main housing near the door frame. Often you have to raise or open the top or front of the washing machine to get to the switch. If it's defective, you need to replace it.
But If your washer spins but doesn't pump the water out, the drain line is probably clogged. In many washers, a small sock or other piece of clothing can get between the clothes tub and the outer tub that holds the water. If the clothing gets between the tubs, it may then get into the drain hose that's attached to the pump--or even into the pump itself. If it's in the pump, you need to remove the hoses from the pump and pull the item out.
If the drain line isn't plugged, the problem may be with your pump. Even if the pump appears to be turning, the internal impeller may be broken. If so, you need to replace the pump.

Please read the previous note and then this one.
I think the loud clicking noise is a critical part of my question, the previous answer did not address this or address the identified time that the clicking occurs. The model number of the advice does not match the model number that I identified (but perhaps that is perhaps because I am in Australia?)
