LG Washer OE Error Code - LG Washer Not Draining Fix - LG Washer Drain Pump Replacement Tutorial Parts used in this video: LG Replacement Pump: https://amzn.to/2WWKlFJ Spring Expansion Tool: https://amzn.to/380UFmg When you see the OE error message on your LG washer, that pretty much means there's something wrong with your drain pump. Mine suddenly isn't pumping water out and there's a weird noise when it should be draining. So in this video I'll walk you through detailed step-by-step instructions on how to replace the drain pump on an LG front loading washer! And I encourage you to watch the whole video before beginning your own repair so you're familiar with the process. To start out, unplug the washer. There are two brackets in the back of the washer that need to come out. But using a short stubby Philips screwdriver helped me get these screws out even though there was very little space to work with. With both brackets out, the top off by sliding it back and lifting it off. Next slide the detergent tray out and remove it. For the front control panel there are three screws that need to come out. The first two are at the detergent tray opening. The third screw is actually on the inside on the right. Now the front panel can be lifted off. Next keep a towel handy and open the front panel door and drain the water out of the rubber tube into a casserole dish. When all the water is out untwist the coin basket and remove the drain door. Now take out the screw that holds the inner cover on. This will just lift right out. Then take out one last screw in the sheet metal. Now take out the retaining ring that goes around the big rubber seal. At the bottom there's a spring holding the tension of the ring. To remove it, wedge a screwdriver under the spring and start pulling the ring out of the rubber seal. Then detach the rubber seal from the opening of the washer. On the door latch remove the two screws that hold it on. This will actually detach it from the front of the washer. Next take out the six screws holding the front of the washer on. And there's actually quite a few things that have to be removed before actually getting to the pump itself. This will be easier to see when watching the video. When the front of the washer is loose just tilt it back a bit and it can be lifted out. But be careful when grabbing it because there are definitely sharp edges on the metal. You are now at the stage where you can access the pump. Please refer to the video for pump removal. It isn't easy to describe without visual help. When I get the pump out right away I can see that the impeller has broken completely off the pump shaft so this definitely has to be replaced. I had ordered a new pump ahead of time from Amazon and I recommend you do the same before you start your own repair. The LG washer OE error is caused directly from a damaged pump. With a damaged pump the water won't drain out of the washer and sometimes it will create unusual sounds from inside the washer. There are wires and tubes that need to be removed which is why you'll have to watch the video for the complete repair. The very last step in the drain pump repair is to put the retaining ring back on. And it's easily the most frustrating and most difficult part. I tried to do it by hand and using screwdrivers many times but could not get it back on. I've seen some videos that make it look easy but the spring on the ring is extremely tight. So I recommend ordering a spring expansion tool before you starting this repair. I paid $12 for it. If I didn't have this spring expansion tool, I think it's impossible to put the ring back on without injuring fingers or damaging the rubber seal. This tool is definitely a life saver because that spring is super tight and I didn't have anything around the house that could stretch this out. In under 10 seconds with this tool the ring is back on and this repair is complete! My washer now works like normal and water is pumping out just like before. I've listed the $25 pump and $12 expansion tool at top of the description so it's easy for you to find. Hopefully you can see that this is a repair that you can actually do yourself. There's no need to call a repairman. If you found this helpful please give me a thumbs up and hit the subscribe button for more videos like this! Thanks for watching!
