LG pointers Please

[arosview]

Sorry, Model number not known yet.
I have my first LG direct drive, call tomorrow or Sunday. Customer is reporting that all seems OK except no motor action.

Can anyone tell me what in particular to look out for. I’ve never even had the back off one of these, the customer has not reported any fault codes flashing etc,

Thanks

Re: LG pointers Please

Motor stator failure often presents itself as a loud hum and the pulley will vibrate. The pulley is removed like any other; except it is magnetic and quite hard to pull off. Take care not to trap your fingers between the pulley and stator. If the machine is tripping the electric, then look for damage to the large capacitor on the PCB. If the outer case is split, then the whole PCB has to be renewed as the components are sunk in resin. 🙁

Hope that helps,

Steve.
