While LG has a good reputation for making high-quality appliances, from time to time, your LG dishwasher may have an issue that stops it from working correctly. Fortunately, if the dishwasher has an issue, it is designed to display an error code that will tell you what the problem is. By reading our LG dishwasher error code guide, you can diagnose and possibly fix the problem yourself. If you are unsure how to fix the issue, contact a trained technician to fix it for you.
Error codes can usually be cleared by disconnecting the power to the dishwasher for a few minutes.
LE: Motor Error
An LG dishwasher LE motor error indicates a problem with the motor. See error code CE above.
LG Dishwasher Error Codes
An LG dishwasher AE error code means that the dishwasher may be leaking. If you cannot see any signs of a leak, there may be excess water in the base of the dishwasher, usually under the bottom panel where there is a basin and a leak sensor.
Dishwasher leaks or triggering of the leak sensor often occurs because of too much detergent being used, damaged spray arms, a damaged door gasket, or a hose or pump blockage.
nE: Vario Motor Error
An LG dishwasher nE error code indicates the motor that controls the spray arms has an issue. The nE error code can usually be cleared by disconnecting the power to the dishwasher for a few minutes.
However, if the error code returns, the motor will need to be checked with a multimeter to determine if it has failed and needs to be replaced. Before replacing the motor, make sure the error code is not caused by a loose wiring harness or a foreign object interfering with the motor.
