The LE error message means "locked motor error" which means the control is not seeing the motor running. The problem can be caused by a broken wire or loose connection but the most likely cause of the problem is a bad hall sensor.

Question
Locked motor error code.
Answer
LE
error code: This indicates a locked motor condition. Please check the
following conditions.
Large loads of laundry can put a strain on the motor causing the LE
error code. Try removing some clothing and restart.
Excessive suds can cause the LE error code. Make sure the customer is
using an HE (High Efficiency) detergent. They should decrease the
amount of detergent until the machine washes without suds. A few
bubbles can be expected. Areas that have �soft� water will usually need
to use less detergent.
If you suspect that excessive suds are the problem, let the machine
stand for 30 min (motor cool down) and then run a rinse and spin cycle
before restarting the load.
If these directions are followed and the code persists, the machine
will likely need service.

LE error means level error (the d/w fills up but the water drain out at the same time somehow). I had a case once where the drain hose at the back of the d/w was resting on the floor to drain underneath the cust house. problem is like any drain hose it has to GO UP FIRST and then down to the ground otherwise the gravity will push the water out as the d/w fills up hence the LE error.
Had same problem last yr. about 2 yrs. old. Just happened again today. When i called LG last yr. they said unplug unit for 1/2 hr plug back in. I did this and has run fine until today I'm trying this process again and it worked.
