LG Washing Machine problem

[steeno69]

Hi There
Was hoping for advice on here
Had a drainage issue with my LG washer

Did all the usual:
Checked drain
Checked pipes
Took washer apart
Checked filter
Checked drain hose (that was blocked and cleared)
Checked the large pipe from drum (removed a few coins)
Took out pump Tested and works fine

It’s like the bugger hates me so not sure where else to look..

Is there a potential other issue that I’m missing?

There are the pipes leading from the pump to main drain I blew through and no blockage there .

Help (if possible?)

Thanks a Mill

Alan

Re: LG Washing Machine problem

you cant test the pump without water in it. if pump is powering but not starting its the pump. these pumps can stert with small omounts of water in but fail when its full

Just checking the pump spins but not pumping the water out… guessing that means it is the pump then (I hope) no sign of any other blockages

Also Just checking that only one of the pumps spins (the left hand one) the right hand one I am assuming this is for recirculation.

Thanks Dave for your reply.
Im happy enough if it’s just the pump so at least I can replace easy enough myself rather than get call out from engineer

ordered the pump part mate so fingers crossed 🙂 worth punting £16 on this to get it working 🙂

Fingers crossed
