LG 24 in. LD-12BS6 Stainless Steel Free-standing Dishwasher - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Have the drain pump checked out, if faulty you will need to replace it as it cannot be repaired.

There is a possibility the water pressure itself is low from the kitchen line or the dishwasher is set at incorrect water pressure setting and does not collect enough water based on the flow time of inlet valve. If you hear the wash motor cut in then there is not enough water in the base to start pumping it to through the arms.

hi
The most common cause of an OE error code on a modern LG dishwasher is:
1. Blocked drain hose
2. Obstruction in the sump area (beneath the filter, which needs to be removed to check for onstruction)
3. Failing drain motor. 
else you need to REPLACE THE PCB POWER CONTROL BOARD

Hi there Mark, are you sure of that code? there is no referance to it but there is a referance to OE, Oe relates to water drainage. it either took too long to drain if thats the case check your filter for blockages or it didnt drain if thats the case I would be looking at the waste pump for bockages.bent armiture or failure. I hope this helps regards Gary.

Hi there Dolly, error code E1 relates to water leaking. Its the code the machine displays when the flood switch in the bottom of the machine activates. The flood switch activates when the bottom of the machine gets filled with water from a leak. I surgest you have a look underneth the machine for signs of water. I hope this helps regards Gary.

Hi there Bushx, sound to me like the door latch is in the closed position. you should be able to feed something into the catch and pull it back out to the open position. Please let me know if this helps regards Gary

Hi there Larry which hose are you refering to the inlet or the waste. You can take the inlet hose of very easily, However the waste pipe is conected to the waste pump inside the machine. If this is the pipe you wish to remove I would drill a bigger hole in the cupboard. let me know if this helps at all. Regards Gary.

Hi there Pereiraal the code IE relates to the water suply system, please check that the water tap is turned on, if it is the inlet valve may be at fault but first I would make sure the tap is on and you have water coming through to the machine. please let me know if this helps.

Hi there Elshaddia the code FE relates to the machine not being level. please check that it is level and not leaning forward as this would bring up that fault code. please let me know if this helps, regards Gary.

Hi there Diane OE on your display relates to the water draining system (water is not pumped away). the diashwasher is not seeing the water drain away. Dishwashers start by draining before they take on fresh water. Start your dishwasher and listen for a pumping noise from the waste pump if you dont hear any noise it may be the pump is blocked or faulty. please advise if this helps kind regards gary.

It should be plumbed into hot water.

Hi

OE in your dishwasher is a drain error and dishwasher not draining issue usually occurs due to kinked drain pipe, clogged drain filter or drain pump. First make sure that the drain is not clogged and remove clogs if present. If no visible lint is present then remove the lower front access panel to check the drain filter and drain pump for any clogs, you'll need to clean the drain filter and drain pump completely. Also, check for any food pieces stuck near the pump impeller & clean the chopper assembly. If the issue returns after cleaning then the drain pump assembly should be replaced. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

Hi

E1 is a leakage error in your LG dishwasher; it is usually displayed either due to a clogged drain or due to water leakage in hose connections. If the drain pump assembly is not clogged then check the motor water seal leakage of sump assembly and also check the impeller of washing pump, if it is worn then replace the impeller. You can also make sure that the height of drain hose is not over 20". Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

wash motor defective or its jammed with debris. good luck.

Hello, check if there is water comming to machine. Sounds like its not filling up.

Hi
Dishwashers use Bi-Metal strip to allow the dispenser to open/close. This strip when heat up causes the soap door spring to open up the dispenser. If this strip is not heated doesn't allow the door to open. The strip may not be getting 120V or maybe disconnected. Newer (plastic liner) Maytag dishwashers use a wax motor to open the soap dispenser. The plunger inside the wax motor slowly moves and pushes the plunger and door open. And, if this wax motor doesn't receive 120 volts, then it'll not work. Please check the voltage to the wax motor/Bi-metal strip; also inspect the connections to these. Hope this helps...

Daniel
