Other WM3670HWA codes
- UE: The load is unbalanced: clothes have gathered on one side of the tub, often because the load is too small.
- IE: No water is coming in, or the water pressure is low.
- dE1, dE2: The door is not secured, so the tub does not rotate.
- LE: The tub does not rotate, usually because the washer is overloaded and the motor has overheated.
- Sud: Too many suds. The washer adds a suds-reducing routine of about two hours, and stops spinning if suds appear during spin, to prevent leaks.
- tCL: Not a fault. The tub needs cleaning; the reminder generally appears every 1 to 2 months depending on use.
- PF: A power failure occurred during the cycle.
- tE, FE, PE: tE is a control error, FE means the water supply does not stop, and PE means the water level sensor is not working. LG gives no owner fix.
- CL: Not a fault. Child Lock is on: the buttons are locked, but the door is not. The lock stays on after the washer shuts off, and only the Power button works.
