Questions
about LE.

Can I clear LE myself?
Let the washer stand for 30 minutes. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Why wait 30 minutes before restarting after LE on an LG Signature?
That is the rest period the Signature manual sets before a retry. Restarting sooner may simply bring the code back.
LE came back after the rest on my LG Signature. What now?
The manual moves straight to service at that point, so book a visit.

Back to your everyday

Still showing LE?

Book with the code as it appears, the full model number, and whether any water is on the floor — for a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
