Spin cycle not working on my LG WM0642HW - LG WM0642H Front Load

SOURCE: "UE" error code LG washer wm0642hw

This is an Imbalance code. Your issue may be with:

• The load is too small
• The appliance is tilted
• Laundry is gathered to one side
• Non-distributed things are put into the drum

I have this problem and you can find the solution on this same web page by searching. It is likely the Hall Sensor that needs to be replaced (see proflevy posting on Jul 16, 2008). According to the postings, it is from soap build up on the sensor and replacing it costs $18 for the part and is easy (many responses on this). I am waiting for the part and will try to fix mine soon.

software problem. regarding smell, after wash keep the door opened for ventilation, use fabric conditioner etc. also check whether any rodent has gone inside and messed up the place

SOURCE: LG Washer WM0642HW: Not enough water

Turn clockwise the water level sensor set screw a half turn "clockwise" under the top of the machine lid.This is the only way to rid yourself of the WICK WATER RUB WASH METHOD that is just terrible. Especially with a full load ! BELIEVE ME. I really wonder if consumers who have the WM0642HW earlier produced version with the nozzle spray system in the top of the door seal are having these troubles?. Mine is a 2009 verson of the WM0642HW, No Forced Water Recirculation. ( Discontinued) and how it was preset for fill at the factory made it perform terribly. Only after i adjusted the water level sensor does it perform well the first time around. Have yet had to rewash anything since the adjustment i made for the fill level. Good Luck.

It is possible that the tub is mechanically struck within that is making the motor slip off from the drive. It is important that the voltage to the motor is checked ,if the voltage is not good then the program controller must be checked.
If not the motor by itself must be checked, if the motor spins then the drive assembly must be overhauled.
