LG TD_C70045E

[senseib]

This machine wont start. When i press the start/pause button there is a clicking noise & the dry light (1st left) starts flashing then after about 30 seconds the clean filter light starts to flash and the machine bleeps, the pump runs but no motor.

Dont get many LG’s – Is this a fault code? any help appreciated!

Haven’t looked at any LG driers YET, but it sounds like perhaps a faulty start relay?

Re: LG TD_C70045E

Hi Trotter,
Thanks for the quick reply – whereabouts on the machine is the relay located?

Cancel that! ……..I have just been reliably informed it is almost certainly the 10 microsparrow capacitor that is faulty!

Also take the small cover off the back and you will find a resetable cut-out – it may have popped out (Check no blockages etc.

🙂

Definately not the 10uf capacitor or the resetable toc. However I do think it could be motor related because the heater is coming on (Thought it wasn’t but it is). Not the capacitor, changed that – no difference! No smell of burning from the motor though, but how reliable are these motors?

Can anyone else help please?

There is a thermal cutout in the motor and I`ve had this go open cct. Easily checked with a meter if you remove the right hand side panel.
