Thirteen LG washer codes are decoded here, and two of them are not faults at all: tcL is a tub-clean reminder driven by a wash-count timer, and Sud reports foam rather than a broken part. IE and FE are fill and overflow, OE is drainage, PE is the pressure sensor that judges both, and AE is a leak detected — tub seal, hose, or boot. LE is a locked or overloaded motor, CE is an overcurrent, dE is the door lock, UE is an unbalanced load, tE is the thermistor circuit, and PF logs a supply interruption.
The guides use the relationships in that list rather than treating each code as a separate machine. PE, FE and IE all depend on the same pressure hose and sensor, so a blocked hose is checked before any of the three is blamed on a valve. UE is read with AE in mind, because a load thrown hard to one side works the suspension and the boot that AE later reports as leaking. Sud and tcL end in detergent choice and a cleaning cycle. OE begins at the pump filter, which is also where the water comes out.
AE and CE are the two to stop for. A leak that has reached the base gets worse with every cycle, and an overcurrent on the inverter side is the drive telling you something is shorted or jammed rather than tired. The stator, rotor and inverter board are line-voltage parts that hold charge; the drain filter, the boot and the levelling feet are not. No gas and no refrigerant appear here.
