What does UE error mean on LG washing machine
This error code indicates that your washing machine could not rationally distribute the weight of the drum relative to its axis of rotation. Do not confuse UE and uE errors.
If the error starts with a small u, then it means that your washing machine is trying to fix the problem on its own, trying to add some water and distribute the laundry in the tub. This error is for informational purposes and does not require your intervention. An error that begins with a capital U indicates that the washing machine, despite all efforts, could not cope and asks you for help.
You can fix the UE error yourself in the following cases
- It is possible that you simply overloaded your washing machine, or vice versa, put too little laundry. In this case, the washing machine cannot spin, since the system that controls the weight distribution of the drum does not allow her to do this. Try to load the laundry more evenly and the error may disappear.
