What does EE code on lg dryer mean
The EE error code stands for "EEprom Error" which means that the main control board EEprom program memory is defective.
Replace the main board.
LG top loader has error code DL
This error means that the lid lock isn't engaging or the lock signal was not received by the control board. This could be because something blocked the lid from closing. Check for dirt or a piece of laundry in the latch area. (On some models of top-load washers the lock mechanism involves a small magnet. If this applies, check that the magnet hasn't fallen out.) Unplug the washer for a few minutes to reset the error code.
If the error persists, you'll need to check if the problem is the lock mechanism not moving freely or damaged/corroded wiring at the switch or at the control board or electronics of the switch. If the switch and wiring are okay, then the control board could be faulty.
I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the model number of the washer if you need help finding a parts list/diagram.

Why is it that my LG machine shakes violently while it's rinsing? Is it supposed to be like that please?
Question 2 also edited for clarity, 'LG' not 'lg'.
No model details again.
Surely not during 'Rinse' cycle? That just adds water and gently tumbles to get the soap out and complete the washing by further agitating the clothes. You must mean during spinning and much depends on if it is a front loader, or a top loader. For both, machine not level front to back and left to right and / or not sitting firmly on all 4 feet.
Top loader, bulky load unevenly loaded.
Front loader, single bulky item causing an uneven load.
I noticed that my LG washer is leaking at the bottom. Please may I know the problem and the solution for it?
Question 3 also edited.
Slide a single sheet of newspaper under the machine. As the machine is running pull the paper out every 10 minutes and look for where the water has dripped. That will tell you the area where the leak is. When the machine has finished, pull the machine out and tilt it back against the wall. Have someone hold the machine whilst you look with a flashlight. It is likely to be the pump or any of the hoses. On a top loader it can be seals or corrosion. On a front loader a crack in the plastic outer drum.
My Lg too load washer sprays water during spin cycle
It is normal for a washer to spin and spray fresh water over the clothes during rinse period. I don’t know why it would leave clothes wet. Look at your options. See if you can turn off rinse n spin to just spin.
Machine doesnt start. the wash and spin indicator lights blink alternating
first try unplugging and waiting a minute and then plug in and see if that resets it. if it does not try unplugging, wait a minute, hold power button in for 15 secs and then plug back in and see if that resets it. and finally, try the second one and continue to hold power button in while plugging back in. all are different ways of resetting some washer models. one might work for you and cannot hurt to try. good luck
VERY LOUD GRINDING NOISE LG WM-2277HW Front Load Washer
Get a new washer. Perhaps another brand.
The fix for me was to get a new washer. Had same issue with loud spin cycle. Tried researching while wife was continuing use of washer. Then the LE message appeared.
Took back apart and found that water had leaked and caused a boat load of damage. Bearings shot, seal leaks, drum leaks, Stator damaged. Same issue as 'jammy64' stated.
Cost to repair wasn't worth it. Going to get an
Electrolux model.
LD DLG3461w drying time too long
Hi
before changing the circuit board, please power cycle your dryer and double check that the lint is emptied before every drying session.
Thank you.
Buttons not working on lg washer
I had this problem with another model LG washer dryer and the problem was just the tiny switch (6mm x 6mm) on the circuit board had worn out. They cost about 30 pence on eBay and are very easy to remove and re-solder onto the circuit board as there are only 2 pins. This saved a huge amount of money for a new control board.
