Excellent tutorial. There are websites that charge you money for this information. You are doing a great service by providing it for free. And that my man, gets you a new subscriber 👍🏾
Good video, however if you have a clog, which you usually do if you have the OE, there's a few gallons of water in the machine. Taking off the cap dumped way more water out than a towel can handle.
Thanks for the video, every other LG washer drain repair video suggested I'd need to remove the lid or tip the washer over, and neither were an option with my stacked units in a tight space. Just popping off that lower front panel saved me a ton of effort and possibly back injury. 👍
@@JoeS97756 Yeah, removed the Philips-head screws by the filter, and was able to pop the bottom panel out like around 7:55. I must have a different model, because I was fortunate enough to not have to remove extra parts seen at 9:55 and beyond. For complete clarity, my washer was model WM1355HW
Came back to show my result... I disassembled it 3 times... But became faster doing it haha. I unplugged every hose. The bottom one from the drum, the main one, clear. The bubbles ones (right pump motor) were clogged in the connection to the drum gum (the one that attaches to the door), cleaned them, but it was not the OE cause. The motors were working (I extracted them and tested directly to the current with a cable) I even disconnected a black somewhat big but short hose from the back, clear of obstructions also. The last possibility was the white hose going to the waste. It its the exit one, that connects to the pump. I disconnected it from the pump and removed it completely, it was separated by a plastic union. I connected one extreme to the water and left it flow but nothing was exiting from the other side. Didn't have a long thing to unclog it so I took it to the street and grabbed it frok the plastic union, then I started spinning and the centrifugal force unclogged it, expelling the waste obstruction. Tested it under the water again and now it was flowing. Reconnected everything and worked again.
Just followed your tutorial and although my machine was a bit different, it was pretty much the same. Easier actually. My control board was on the bottom of the machine facing down in the middle under the drum so the entire operation was simplified.
Really thanks for help, struck in troubleshooting from last 1 hours, after opening draining cover lot of mud come outside and ots resolved issue. Also I clean external pipe by shaking it.
Thank you! thank you!! for your video. I’m from Ohio USA. All I had to do is drain the washer and clean a really nasty filter. It’s washing like a champ again.
If your machine won't drain try blowing hard into the drain hose. Mine came free and saved me from having to take the machine apart to clean it, replace the pump or calling a guy out.
Hey, i just wanted to say thank you very much. This video solved my issue. I really appreciate the honest, straightforward advice. Other youtube channels just tell you to replace the drain pump. These other channels also conveniently sell the replacement drain pumps...
I pulled the hose off the bottom of the tub and found a sock, credit card and fluff blocking the passage to the drain pump. So definitely check that before ordering parts.
Thanks for this very helpful video. My LG washing machine was stuck with an OE error, nearly sent it to a service centre. Found a sock stuck inside the side hole there as shown in the video. Machine good as new. Kudos. 👊👊👏👏👏🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙Already subscribed to the channel
Thank you so much for sharing your experience . I have a question need your help . I have replaced the new LG water pump, checked all the hoses cleaned perfect. but no water comes out when draining water at high speed. What is the problem? Thank you for your advice. thank you!
I want to say a big thank you for the tip on the pump it really saved me a lot cos I was thinking of buying a new machine. My machine was a bit of an older version so it was harder reaching the pump but I got it done. Thanks
Great video! One tip for future video production: if you need to point the location of any screws, use a long and thin screwdriver instead of your finger for pointing and it will be much more clear in the video.
If you get the OE error code during your wash cycle >>> DO NOT pull out the filter BEFORE draining the water. Use the little black tube to drain the water into a basin/bowl/bucket!!
Ditto to the othe commenter. I don't have a black tube near the filter. Just a small gray one that takes up way less space than the one shown here. Is it the same thing?
This is a great video, but I wish I would have read the comments first since he didn’t mention or show the gallons of water that came pouring out when I pulled the filter out. Oh well. Live and learn!
Unplug!! If tub isn’t drained, watch out for lots of water! You could drain via the black hose, with ver shallow pan. Perhaps rig up a hose into a bucket or outside because the water might equal 2 buckets full.
I washed a carpet that was way too big and it clogged the filter. I put a towel like you said, but the filter was so clogged, I needed more like a bathtub. Needless to say, I was doused in very smelly water 😂😂
@@SirRorschachJack I put a towel under the washing machine to catch the water that comes out of the filter. But it wasn’t just a little bit of water it was a ton.. no towel clogging anything 🙂
Hi, that’s very helpful. Although my machine looks fairly similar it does have that front removable cover?? I would imagine it will need accessing from below??? My filter is clear and sometimes it’s OK. Would it be possible to have blockages in the outlet hose or beyond the filter? Pump looks the most likely though. Any thought??
Right, after fearing the worst I removed the waste pipe and watched the machine try to pump the waste water out, it came out like a trickle. After a while, I noticed something at the end of the hose moving in and out when the washing machine tried to eject water. A quick shake of the hose and it released a fairly large amount of fibres from a rug that had been put in the machine. It came out like a hair ball and immediately afterwards, the pressure of the water coming out was more akin to a shower! All is well.
Thank you for this video! Super helpful! My LG washer has recently developed a new issue. The light does not turn off after a cycle until I completely disconnect the machine from power. Would you know how to tackle this issue?
Welcome. I have had that issue before. there might be some water ingress in the connectors for the light. If you turn on the drum light manually does it go off
Great and informative video. Legend. However, my machine is only about 3 months old and gets the OE error every cycle. Have cleaned filters and blown down the hose to clear any blockage. Any other ideas for a new machine?
Hi! Great video! Tried removing our filter and the cap top came off without the filter basket, we have never cleaned it. 10+ years. Is there another way in?
Due to noisy working, removed pump motor assembly that you talk about here in this video.. But started getting OE fault code with water not drained from machine..

I'm not a pro but one thing I learned from fixing fridges freezers game systems and televisions is its all the same. Different items same organs just gotta know what "organ" needs changing
Anyone going through the pain of this at the moment it may not be the pump ,I had a kids sock stuck in the pipe under the drum ,hadn't reached the filter,easy enough to remove pipe from drum but WHAT A BALL ACHE to get pipe back on !!

I might be in the same predicament... where is it located or how you accessed it? through the back? I replaced the two pump motors and OE came again :(
@@fusiongamesthe pipe under the drum is accessed from the front after removing panel BUT if something is stuck in that pipe you might be to get to it via the normal filter pipe on front right, you can get long pipe cleaner type plug hole cleaners designed for removing hair etc ,I reckon it may be possible to poke it in via that filter pipe and grab onto a sock or whatever is blocking it .
Great video, definitely subbing! Question for you, what if it isn't the basket or the pump? Couldn't it be possible there is a clog in the line or connection just prior to the pump? My unit is a ventless, Inverter Direct Drive, washer/dryer combo that I unfortunately inherited. My wife ran some carpet throws in it and have been having OE issues ever since.

Hi, I have a LG front load that washes fine but when it comes to the spinning cycle it doesn't spin and OE error will appear. However, the water is drained and I've already replaced the drain motor.. What could be the issue? I suspect it might be the pressure switch or control board? Please help me
So can you help me I opened up my black filter pulled it out and there's black plastic chunks and a rubber seal in all kinds of pieces of rubber seal came out in the filter and my spin cycles is not working is that a major fix on my LG stackable washer and dryer?
Thanks a million times, this helped,🤗🔥♥️💕❤️💃💃💃💃, even though I ended up with the floor full of water 💧 😂😂, but I'm excited, thank you, thank you, thank you...🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙌🏼
Hi how are you. I was hoping you might be able to tell me how to replace the pump on my LG Front Loader as mine has a full panel on the front unlike yours. I don't know how to add a photo but my model number is WD1208TC4W. Ps thank you very much for your detailed video. I find a lot of people tell you how to fix but never expand if that doesn't fix the problem. I am a single mum trying to save money. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you Liz
I had this problem. Replaced the pump still no go. Checked the sensor and ordered a replacement for that. On a hunch I blew into the hose feeding the sensor and felt a pop. Something had gunked up that inlet and washer has worked fine since.
@@shaunhill2466 Sensor was in the back right of the unit if you are behind it. The hose leads down to the bottom of the tub to measure water levels. It was gunked up with those scented add-in pellets. Since we have dumped those we haven't had any issue.
I checked the drain hose at the back and there are no kinks or clogs. I emptied the water from the black drain hose located in the access panel and cleaned the drain pump filter. When I set the wash setting to cotton/normal without any detergent, softener or bleach, it worked fine. But when I started to wash a load of clothes, I get an OE error at the beginning of the rinse cycle. I cleaned the filter and checked the drain hose again and saw that there is nothing clogged and still get the OE error. I saw standing water in the washer drum when the error appeared. I first started to get the error after I washed a welcome mat, which shed a lot of fibers. I was able to get all of the debris out from the washer itself. Another approach I tried is putting baking soda and vinegar, but that approach didn't work for me. FYI, I have been owning this washer for 10 years.
Hi mate no worries you can fix it by accessing the bottom pipe that attaches to the tub. It’s the black pipe that runs from the tub to the drain housing. You need to detach it and clean it as some fibres might still be caught. It always happens with welcome mats
@@askmrwashywashy Is it the black hose that is next to the filter located at the bottom left corner of a front load washer? I know I can access the hose but how can I detach it? Do I need to remove some screws? I have a gray drain hose that connects from the back of the washer to the back of the wall where the faucets for hot and cold water are. Is there a video that I can do this?
@@anthonyle3883 I'm currently asking this exact question.. I see people are blowing into some hose and it's fixing it.. I hope to God they ain't blowing on that little black hose 🤢
My husband just replaced our drain pump. As we were getting the OE message. Nothing in the filter clogging. But we’re still getting the OE message. And the water is dirty now. Is there a reset button and additional steps after the pump is replaced?
is the water coming out when you put it on drain only. you turn on and press spin speed button. watch to see if water is coming out. Please check also if there are any coins in the pipes. one more thing the water level sensor pipe blow into it, make sure its not blocked
No water coming out with the spin cycle. Will have to let my husband know to check the pipes for coins etc. Would that cause the water to be dirty too?
@@julmckni I think there are coins and pins/nails rusted in the pipes. Check the pipe from the tub to the drain pump and the pipe from drain pump fitting to drain pipe
How do I know if the pump is bad? My machine is making a loud noise, but doesn't sound like the normal sound like it's pumping. I'm assuming the pump is bad
I replaced the pumps on my lg washing machine after getting an oe and tcl error code. After replacing the pumps I ran one cycle and it’s giving me a tcl error code again and water is left in the tub. What can it be. Please let me know if you have any feedback thank you so much.
easier to turn the washer upside down to change the pump if that is needed. usually the whole pump housing is filled with dirt that stops the electro magnetic pump from running. clearing the pump house might make your pump work again. Just gotta pull on the impeller to get in to the pump housing.
Turning it upside down might run the risk of the springs on the top coming off or damaging the heating housing if it’s a washer dryer. Also soap drawer might crack if you tip it upside down
I'm having this same error, but when I open the filter water keeps pouring out (to the extent its already soaked through over 10 towels) and shows no sign of slowing down. Any recommendations for how to deal with this?
When feeling inside the drain hole, should I be feeling a filter of some sort? I’m definitely feeling something that could be a filter but I can’t see it to know for sure.
I just bought a set uses and when I put it on regular cotton load it locks and then stays on scaling load and won't do anything. I did the test run process and everything works except the last step draining... The drain filter had a ton of stuff in it when I cleaned it and now every time I drain it it gets cleaner and cleaner. How can I clean that part out completely? Or is it possible that the large drain hose in the back is clogged? How can I check to see if that is clogged?
you need to check the drain pipe and the black pipe that drains water from wash tub into drain filter. You can remove the bottom cover under the door if removeable or you can access through a whole under the washer if there is one ( you would need to lay the washer on its side ) or you can uninstall the base of the washer, they'll be maybe 15-20 screws. you'll need to lay the washer on its side as well.
welcome. Glad you are fixing it. Which pump did you replace ? You might have replaced the recirculating pump.Also please make sure that you reinstalled the wiring to the pump. Can you hear the pump going ?
@@askmrwashywashy Thanks for replying , I replaced the drain pump ( bigger one from the left) You meant the little pump across it ? And no , there was no humming sound like it used to be when spin cycle started .
Hi I have the same issue in my washer machine but I don’t know how and where to find the right draining pump can you help me where to find it please It’s a LG model WM3370HVA
My door won't close I've taken the door latch apart and I'm trying to put it back together and I'm confused with the top Spring That goes underneath the Gray cover model number Eb F61315802 any information how this Spring is supposed to go back in here would be much appreciated

Welcome. Thanks mate. Hope to continue providing you value
Good video, however if you have a clog, which you usually do if you have the OE, there's a few gallons of water in the machine. Taking off the cap dumped way more water out than a towel can handle.
This just happened to me as well 😭
Did he unplug it first?
Thank you! Thank you! I just fixed my washing after 4 hours of failure. God bless you!

@@JoeS97756 Yeah, removed the Philips-head screws by the filter, and was able to pop the bottom panel out like around 7:55. I must have a different model, because I was fortunate enough to not have to remove extra parts seen at 9:55 and beyond. For complete clarity, my washer was model WM1355HW
Thank you so much for demonstrating how to solve this problem. I tried twice and got frustrated until I found you. Thanks
Came back to show my result... I disassembled it 3 times... But became faster doing it haha.
I unplugged every hose. The bottom one from the drum, the main one, clear. The bubbles ones (right pump motor) were clogged in the connection to the drum gum (the one that attaches to the door), cleaned them, but it was not the OE cause.
The motors were working (I extracted them and tested directly to the current with a cable)
I even disconnected a black somewhat big but short hose from the back, clear of obstructions also.
The last possibility was the white hose going to the waste. It its the exit one, that connects to the pump. I disconnected it from the pump and removed it completely, it was separated by a plastic union. I connected one extreme to the water and left it flow but nothing was exiting from the other side. Didn't have a long thing to unclog it so I took it to the street and grabbed it frok the plastic union, then I started spinning and the centrifugal force unclogged it, expelling the waste obstruction. Tested it under the water again and now it was flowing. Reconnected everything and worked again.

G'day mate. Have you done a video of actually removing the pump and putting the new on in ?
Gday I haven’t done one yet but will do one in the next few weeks. It’s simple to remove. 3 screws to undo it
Hi how are you. I was hoping you might be able to tell me how to replace the pump on my LG Front Loader as mine has a full panel on the front unlike yours. I don't know how to add a photo but my model number is WD1208TC4W. Ps thank you very much for your detailed video. I find a lot of people tell you how to fix but never expand if that doesn't fix the problem. I am a single mum trying to save money. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you Liz
I had this problem. Replaced the pump still no go. Checked the sensor and ordered a replacement for that. On a hunch I blew into the hose feeding the sensor and felt a pop. Something had gunked up that inlet and washer has worked fine since.
Awesome glad you were able to fix it. Good on you for persisting with it
Where's the sensor/hose?
@@shaunhill2466 Sensor was in the back right of the unit if you are behind it. The hose leads down to the bottom of the tub to measure water levels. It was gunked up with those scented add-in pellets. Since we have dumped those we haven't had any issue.
@@jeffriechers3236 Thank you very much!
Sorry, do you blow into the exit hose? or another one?
I checked the drain hose at the back and there are no kinks or clogs. I emptied the water from the black drain hose located in the access panel and cleaned the drain pump filter. When I set the wash setting to cotton/normal without any detergent, softener or bleach, it worked fine. But when I started to wash a load of clothes, I get an OE error at the beginning of the rinse cycle. I cleaned the filter and checked the drain hose again and saw that there is nothing clogged and still get the OE error. I saw standing water in the washer drum when the error appeared. I first started to get the error after I washed a welcome mat, which shed a lot of fibers. I was able to get all of the debris out from the washer itself. Another approach I tried is putting baking soda and vinegar, but that approach didn't work for me. FYI, I have been owning this washer for 10 years.
The sound of the drain pump trying to drain the water is the same when the drain pump is in normal operations when there were no problems.
Hi mate no worries you can fix it by accessing the bottom pipe that attaches to the tub. It’s the black pipe that runs from the tub to the drain housing. You need to detach it and clean it as some fibres might still be caught. It always happens with welcome mats
@@askmrwashywashy Is it the black hose that is next to the filter located at the bottom left corner of a front load washer? I know I can access the hose but how can I detach it? Do I need to remove some screws? I have a gray drain hose that connects from the back of the washer to the back of the wall where the faucets for hot and cold water are. Is there a video that I can do this?
@@anthonyle3883 I'm currently asking this exact question.. I see people are blowing into some hose and it's fixing it.. I hope to God they ain't blowing on that little black hose 🤢
@@beboduh7815 I ended up calling maintenance instead because disassembling the washer is time consuming.
My husband just replaced our drain pump. As we were getting the OE message. Nothing in the filter clogging. But we’re still getting the OE message. And the water is dirty now. Is there a reset button and additional steps after the pump is replaced?
is the water coming out when you put it on drain only. you turn on and press spin speed button. watch to see if water is coming out. Please check also if there are any coins in the pipes. one more thing the water level sensor pipe blow into it, make sure its not blocked
No water coming out with the spin cycle. Will have to let my husband know to check the pipes for coins etc. Would that cause the water to be dirty too?
@@julmckni I think there are coins and pins/nails rusted in the pipes. Check the pipe from the tub to the drain pump and the pipe from drain pump fitting to drain pipe
How do I know if the pump is bad? My machine is making a loud noise, but doesn't sound like the normal sound like it's pumping. I'm assuming the pump is bad
Thank you! Incredibly helpful! Liked and subbed.
Glad it’s helped
Ditto! Thank you!!
I replaced the pumps on my lg washing machine after getting an oe and tcl error code.
After replacing the pumps I ran one cycle and it’s giving me a tcl error code again and water is left in the tub.
What can it be. Please let me know if you have any feedback thank you so much.
Mine has a big panel in the front, not this small part on the bottom, any videos of how to open that?
easier to turn the washer upside down to change the pump if that is needed. usually the whole pump housing is filled with dirt that stops the electro magnetic pump from running. clearing the pump house might make your pump work again. Just gotta pull on the impeller to get in to the pump housing.
Turning it upside down might run the risk of the springs on the top coming off or damaging the heating housing if it’s a washer dryer. Also soap drawer might crack if you tip it upside down
Do I unplug the machine first?
I'm having this same error, but when I open the filter water keeps pouring out (to the extent its already soaked through over 10 towels) and shows no sign of slowing down. Any recommendations for how to deal with this?
It's DE = Drainage Error!😊
Hi there, it appears that the link to the replacement pump on eBay isn’t working, any chance you could refresh it please?
Thanks!
God bless you dear
Fantastic video ty!
Thanks for this video, I followed it to the T and it turns out I needed a new pump. We just changed it and it’s back up and running.
When feeling inside the drain hole, should I be feeling a filter of some sort? I’m definitely feeling something that could be a filter but I can’t see it to know for sure.
Use a torch and take a look inside there should only be the pump impeller in there nothing else. Make sure you remove the filter first
@@askmrwashywashy it was the pump impeller.
I just bought a set uses and when I put it on regular cotton load it locks and then stays on scaling load and won't do anything. I did the test run process and everything works except the last step draining... The drain filter had a ton of stuff in it when I cleaned it and now every time I drain it it gets cleaner and cleaner. How can I clean that part out completely? Or is it possible that the large drain hose in the back is clogged? How can I check to see if that is clogged?
you need to check the drain pipe and the black pipe that drains water from wash tub into drain filter. You can remove the bottom cover under the door if removeable or you can access through a whole under the washer if there is one ( you would need to lay the washer on its side ) or you can uninstall the base of the washer, they'll be maybe 15-20 screws. you'll need to lay the washer on its side as well.
Very clear
Have to do the work. I’ll be back when completed
hope it all went well mate
No block change pump. Still have oe error?
Life saver thx
Welcome glad it helped
thanks for the video , i replaced the pump , clean the hose , and the hateful OE still on when spin cycle started . Any idea ? Thanks
welcome. Glad you are fixing it. Which pump did you replace ? You might have replaced the recirculating pump.Also please make sure that you reinstalled the wiring to the pump. Can you hear the pump going ?
@@askmrwashywashy Thanks for replying , I replaced the drain pump ( bigger one from the left) You meant the little pump across it ? And no , there was no humming sound like it used to be when spin cycle started .
Hi I have the same issue in my washer machine but I don’t know how and where to find the right draining pump can you help me where to find it please
It’s a LG model WM3370HVA
Fixed!! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
Lol someone told me a couple times a month lol lol no wonder there is never anything in there lol. The odd little thing.
Thank you
Thanks
Welcome glad it helped
My door won't close I've taken the door latch apart and I'm trying to put it back together and I'm confused with the top Spring That goes underneath the Gray cover model number Eb F61315802 any information how this Spring is supposed to go back in here would be much appreciated
Hi I don’t usually open up these door locks. I don’t have any of these at the moment otherwise could open one up and see how it goes back together
What if the OE error still persist, even though I replaced the drain pump already?
The washing machine that I have doesn't have a basket for a filter, you turn the cap off and using a brush to clean the inside.
what model is it?
