The LG washing machine shows the CE error code on the display, stopping at work, which means engine overload.
The CE code on the board of the El Ji washing machine allows the user to detect a problem and try to fix it on their own. Let's figure out how to fix the problem.
What to do to fix the error yourself
If you want to solve the problem at home, without calling the wizard, then try the available methods for resolving CE errors.
How to fix the problem:
- The cause of the CE error on the display may be engine overload. Due to the large amount of laundry in the tank, the engine turns off. If the error code lights up in the "Wash" or "Spin" mode, stop the washing machine, remove part of the laundry.
- Disconnect your LG washer from the network for 10-15 minutes. If the reason was a failure of the electronic board, an error reset will occur. If the code is highlighted again, continue searching.
If you tried all the recommendations, but your actions did not help to remove the error, then the machine needs repair.
What CE means: possible breakdowns and their repair
Having studied the signs and causes of the failure of SM Lji, you can do it yourself.
- If during washing and spinning on the display of the LG washing machine the CE code lights up, and you hear rumble, hum and rattle, the bearing or stuffing box has become unusable. Depending on the degree of destruction of the bearing, the error may burn on the program "Wash" or "Spin". Check and replace the bearing.
- Damage to the tachometer, which is responsible for the number of engine revolutions, is also accompanied by twitching of the drum in direct-drive Al Ji washing machines. The machine shows the CE error code on the programs “Wash” - “Rinse” - “Spin”. Checking and replacing the tachometer (tachogenerator) is required.
- Check connectors, wiring leading from motor to controller. You may need to replace the blown wire or tighten the connection.
- The system gives an error on any of the modes, whether it is washing, rinsing or spinning. From the front panel, where the control unit is located, there is a burning smell. This means a malfunction of the control unit. It is necessary to check the module, if possible, clean the tracks and solder the damaged contacts. In case of a malfunction, replacing the unit will help.
If you have an LG direct drive machine, you may notice the characteristic twitching of the drum during operation. This behavior may indicate a problem with the stator of the engine or small objects falling between the tank and the drum.
In this case, the motor is checked and tested, it may be necessary to replace the stator.
Be careful when repairing an LG washing machine. Do not forget, the first thing to do is to disconnect the SM from the network.
