Heavy Loads & Drain Clogs
"Most service calls in Westmount for washers full of water aren't dead motors; they are pump blockages. We clear the impeller and test the drain cycle immediately."
What's Actually Wrong With It?
LG Washer problems I see in Westmount — and how I fix them
Select your washer issue below, and I'll tell you what I usually see when I open these up in Westmount.
LG Washer won't drain — what usually causes it?
Coins or bobby pins jammed the drain pump impeller. I open the lower panel, physically clear the clog from the trap, and test the motor to make sure it didn't burn out.
Failed Component: Drain Pump
LG Washer clothes wet — what usually causes it?
A bad Hall sensor (Rotor Position) or a snapped drive belt is preventing high RPMs. I test the speed sensor communication. If it's dead, the board aborts the spin. I replace the sensor or belt.
Failed Component: Spin Cycle
LG Washer leaking door — what usually causes it?
A rip in the massive rubber gasket, usually from catching a zipper in the door. I pull the front chassis off, remove the tension springs, and seat a brand-new factory rubber bellows.
Failed Component: Door Bellows
LG Washer shaking violently — what usually causes it?
The hydraulic shock absorbers or suspension rods have lost their dampening fluid. I press down on the tub. If it bounces like a basketball, the shocks are shot. I replace the full set of four.
Failed Component: Suspension System
LG Washer won't agitate — what usually causes it?
Shattered motor coupling or stripped nylon agitator dogs. I tip the machine back and check the linkage. It's usually a quick fix replacing the plastic drive components.
Failed Component: Transmission / Coupling
LG Washer fills slowly — what usually causes it?
Hard water calcium has completely blocked the mesh screens, or the solenoids are weak. I check the hoses first. If they are clear, I ohm-test the 120V water valve and replace it if the coils are failing.
Failed Component: Inlet Valve
LG Washer completely dead — what usually causes it?
A broken door switch interlock. The machine won't start if it thinks the door is open. I trace the power from the wall plug to the board. Usually, I just need to swap the broken door latch assembly.
Failed Component: Power Supply
LG Washer stops mid cycle — what usually causes it?
The water level sensor is getting bad data from a clogged air dome tube. I blow out the pressure hose. If the sensor is still reading wrong, I replace the analog switch on the console.
Failed Component: Pressure Switch
LG Washer door stuck — what usually causes it?
The wax motor in the lock burned out, or there's still water in the tub. I use the manual bypass to get your laundry out, then diagnose whether the pump or the lock itself failed.
Failed Component: Door Latch Solenoid
LG Washer mold smell — what usually causes it?
Soap scum and bacteria buildup behind the drum from using too much cold water. I run a deep chemical descaling and physically clean the door boot where the bio-film hides.
Failed Component: Outer Tub Bearing

I Know These Brands Inside and Out
After many years, you learn the quirks of every manufacturer. I stock the truck based on what breaks the most.
Samsung & LG
Korean brands use a lot of smart electronics. For LG, if it won't spin, it's usually the Hall Sensor on the direct-drive motor. For Samsung fridges, if the ice maker freezes over, I have to install a redesigned OEM heater clip to stop it from happening again. I stock these specific parts in the truck.
Should I Fix It Or Toss It?
My honest advice on the lifespan of your Washer. Expand below.
Washers & Dryers
✓ Fix It: Clogged drain pumps, snapped dryer belts, burnt thermal fuses, or bad door latches. These are simple, fast, same-day fixes.
✕ Replace It: If a front-load washer sounds like a jet engine on spin cycle and it's over 8 years old, the rear tub bearing is shattered.
