LG Washer UE Error Code – How to Fix It
The UE error code on LG washers indicates that the washer has detected an unbalanced load during the spin cycle. When the drum becomes unstable, the washer stops spinning to prevent damage.
This problem can occur with heavy loads, worn suspension components, or an uneven floor.
Common Symptoms
- The washer stops spinning mid-cycle
- The drum repeatedly attempts to rebalance
- The UE code appears on the display
Most Common Causes
Unbalanced Laundry Load
Heavy items such as blankets can create uneven drum weight.
Worn Suspension Components
Front-load washers use shock absorbers to stabilize the drum.
Washer Not Level
If the washer sits unevenly on the floor, the drum may become unstable.
How to Fix the UE Error
- Redistribute the laundry load
- Check that the washer is level
- Inspect suspension components
