UE error on LG washing machine: causes, elimination

Modern household appliances attract consumers not only by their versatility, but also by their convenient operation. So, on sale you can find a lot of "smart" models of washing machines with many useful configurations. Even the highest-quality and most reliable devices of this type can malfunction, but you don't have to look for their cause for a long time - everything that is needed is displayed on the display. Let's find out what the UE error means using the example of LG technology and figure out how to fix it.

LG household appliances are very popular because of their high quality and excellent performance. Many people keep washing machines of this famous brand at home. Such a technique is reliable and durable, but even here its own problems and malfunctions may arise.

It is at this moment that a malfunction of the device may appear. In this case, the drum continues to rotate, as before, but the revolutions do not increase. The machine can make a couple of attempts to start spinning. If all attempts were in vain, then the washing machine will slow down, and the UE error will be displayed on its display.

If the above error lights up on the screen, it means that at this stage there is an imbalance in the drum, due to which spinning was impossible. It should be noted that household appliances of the LG brand refers to the UE error not only in this, but also in other cases... It is quite possible to notice the difference of one problem from another, since the error can be indicated in different forms: UE or uE.

When the display shows - uE, there is no need to interfere with the operation of the washing machine. The technique independently will be able to evenly distribute all the loads along the axis of the drum, carrying out a set and drainage of water. Most likely, the branded unit will succeed in this, and it will continue its work further.

If the display shows the indicated letters during each start-up of household appliances, this means that not everything is in order with the LG washing machine, and you need to take the necessary measures to eliminate them.

So, if the UE error is displayed during the entire wash cycle, and in machines with an inverter motor, there is a characteristic drum shaking, this will indicate that the tachometer is out of order. This is a very important detail that is responsible for the speed at which the drum rotates.

After that, the device simply stops, and the error in question is displayed on its display. Such events will indicate that an important part such as an oil seal or bearing has failed. These parts break down due to natural wear and tear, moisture ingress.

If you notice that a UE error appears on the display of a branded washing machine, then first of all, you need to pay attention to what is currently in the drum of the device... If the amount of laundry is too small, the spin start may be blocked. For the device to function properly, it is worth adding a few more things and trying again.

Washing machines from LG often do not spin the laundry even if the drum is very overloaded with things. In this case, it is important to balance the contents of the unit by removing several products from there.If you wash bulky bathrobes, blankets, jackets or other bulky items, then starting the process can be noticeably difficult. You can "help" the washing machine by supporting it on your own. Squeeze some of the water out of the washed items by hand yourself.

In the course of washing in an LG typewriter, products that vary greatly in size, mix with each other many times and may even intertwine. As a result, this often leads to the fact that the distribution of the laundry is uneven. In order to ensure the correct and measured rotation of the drum of the device, you should carefully distribute all the products with your own hands, get rid of the stray lumps.

There are situations when all of the listed solutions do not affect the functioning of the machine, but the error continues to flash on the display. Then it is worth resorting to other attempts to solve the problem that has arisen. Let's get acquainted with them.

• You can independently check the installation of household appliances on a horizontal level.
• It is worth trying to restart the washing machine. Thus, you eliminate the possibility of a failure in the device program.

Only by replacing it will be possible to solve the error associated with the failure of the oil seal and bearing. These components are easily replaced on their own.

In modern washing machines, the "brains" are electronic boards. These are small computers with their own processor and memory. They contain certain software, which is responsible for the operation of all possible units of household appliances. If these important components are damaged, then errors on the display may appear incorrectly, since the information is interpreted incorrectly by the system. It also happens that the controller or its control program fails.

If an error is displayed due to problems with the controller of the washing machine, it must be disconnected from the network and left deactivated for a couple of minutes. If this manipulation did not help, then it is better to contact a specialist.

If errors and malfunctions occur on a regular basis, this may indicate that the parts in the washing machine are undergoing serious wear and tear. This may apply not only to individual elements of technology, but also to complex mechanisms. If there is such a cause of problems, then the equipment will have to be repaired. To do this, it is advisable to contact an LG service center or involve a professional repairman in the case.

If a branded washing machine has signaled the presence of a UE error, you should not be alarmed.

If you decide to find out on your own, what is the "root of the problem", as well as to solve it yourself, then you should arm yourself with some useful tips.

• If you have an LG washing machine at home that does not have a display on which an error may appear, then other signals will indicate it. These will be light bulbs that relate to spinning, or LED lights (from 1 to 6).
• To remove some things from the drum or report new ones, you must open the hatch correctly. Before that, be sure to drain the water through a special emergency hose.
• If, to correct an error, you have to change certain parts of the washing machine, for example, a bearing, then it must be borne in mind that only a special repair kit is suitable for LG products. You need to order items with the appropriate serial number, or contact a sales consultant for help if you buy parts from a regular store.
• It will be most convenient to check how level the washing machine is using a bubble or laser level. This is construction equipment, but in this situation it will be the best possible way.
• When an error appears on the screen, and the machine does not wring out the laundry, and it rumbles noisily, and an oil puddle has spread under it, this will indicate problems with the oil seal and bearing.You should not be intimidated, since these parts are easy to find on sale, they are inexpensive, and you can replace them with your own hands.
• When working with small details in the construction of a washing machine, you should be as careful and careful as possible. These items must not be lost or accidentally damaged.
• It is not recommended to make independent attempts to fix the electronic systems that caused the error. These are complex components that an experienced master should work with. Otherwise, an inexperienced person risks aggravating the situation and seriously damaging the equipment.
• In order not to face the problem of the displayed error, you should accustom yourself to group all things for washing in advance. You should not hammer the drum “to failure”, but it is not recommended to put 1-2 products there either, since in both cases the UE code may appear.
• It is best to reboot the washing machine as follows: first turn it off, then disconnect it from the electrical network. After that, you need to wait about 20 minutes and do not touch the equipment. Then the LG machine can be started again.
• If household appliances are still under warranty service, it is better not to resort to self-repairing them. Do not waste your time - go to the LG service center, where the problem that appears will definitely be resolved.
• Do not undertake to repair the washing machine yourself if the problem is hidden in a more complex technical part. The actions of an unknowing person can lead to even greater damage, but not to the repair of household appliances.
