The fact that these cells are still used in the era we a in is daft. I use those boards fairly often I get them from Aliexpress. Could you not just use a resistor and a 5v usb power supply?
You could use a resistor and a 5V supply, but you would have to calculate the value of the resistor for every different type of LED string. With the board, it is much easier, you set it for 3v or 4,5v and that's it! The board is good up to 2A if I remember correctly, my 60 LED string is 130mah, so plenty of room....
Pry the silver cover off, inside the drum, and tighten the 10mm nut-with a drill, or better yet, an impact drill, it fixed mine for good-along with the rubber bands
Before replacing things and adding bungee's, etc., next time you get a uE error, turn the power off,and unplug the machine. You'll see the lights come on and stay lit for maybe 8 seconds or so after it's unplugged. Wait a little longer and plug it in and try it again. That's what we did and now we only rarely get the error when there actually is uneven load.
I have LG French door refrigerator broke after 5 years and 2 weeks later same as the video my washing machine broke.( 7 years old )I am waiting dryer broke soon also LG
never will i ever purchase an LG again. transfer Case went out, so i have to purchase a new washer. its not worth fixing and its only a couple years old. looks brand new still, looks like imwill be purchasing a new Whirlpool brand.
Just had a repair man speak to a tech at LG, this has been a known issue for years. The only way to fix the issue is replace the suspension rods. If that doesn't fix it, a new clutch(splines wear out) is needed.
The unit being worked on looks new-the lack of soiled factory-applied grease on the suspension rod ends gives that fact away. It is unlikely that four standard rubber bands are going to restrain the centripetal force of a tub rotating at speeds in excess of 1000 rpm. I've tried to solve the issue with springs, but that ended up being an exercise in futility.
Hmm, interesting. Makes me wonder about maybe adding springs there instead of rubber bands. I have very little experience with LG appliances. I do have a set I intend to check out in order to become somewhat familiar with the brand. That being said, LG dies not appear to have good ratings amongst those who have purchased them. I will NOT fool with LG fridges for the most part.
I fixed mind about $300 later between new tension rods and the CPU it’s finally working like it should . I tried everything springs , elastic bands and it didn’t fix the problem . If you replace your tension rods WEAR GLOVES !!! the grease they give you is like pine sap !!
Tried this and the bands only lasted a few washes till it broke. Going to heavy duty springs and see if it will help. This lg washer is a POS! Lg should be ashamed for sell such crap! Look at all the reviews lg, you have a problem with this type of washer. I WILL NEVER BUY A LG WASHER EVER AGAIN! What a waste of money. I guess washing a couple pairs of shorts and some t shirts is a little too much for this washer. May as well hand wash the items, probably less headache, water and time.
Nice! The technical solution is to replace the 4 suspension rods (in a kit), but this is a great quick fix to get you by until the parts come in. The suspension goes out commonly in many brands, so it isn't really anything to get upset at LG about, but whirlpool does have rubber straps, in addition to their suspension rods which are placed in a function similar to the rubber bands here. LG is learning and they seem to have pretty good quality overall. I don't like working on them because they're occasionally quirky (new designs), but LG is certainly are one of the better imported brands.
I don't know about the rods, might work for some, but my washer has been a boar since the day I got it. I will try bands or springs first. Sledge hammer trick second. Next washer - back to the most basic cheapest thing I can find. Remember when they used to last, AND only take 30 minutes to do a load, as opposed to LG taking half a day. I mean really, I would not sell this to anyone unless it was someone looking for a motor or something.
It certainly is something to get upset with LG about….why buy a washer if you have to work on it? You must work for LG because how could you not be upset as a consumer having to work on a brand new washer?
@@jarose7396 we replaced the shocks with no luck . I tightened the 10mm nut under the silver cover inside the drum, this and the rubberbands solved the OE problem
I was going to add isolater springs to the top of mine. It has gotten so bad that even an empty load will wobble and the drum contacts the cabinet. All the isolater springs are appearing fine- unbroken. Maybe just weakened up over the couple years. This shouldn't be an issue- strange and poor design to try and balance the bottom of the drum.
Adding my voice to the chorus that LG washers are terrible. Mine always goes off-balance, just like everyone else's. Do not buy one. In fact, do not buy anything from LG, their customer service is terrible. They will not help you.
Just got off the phone after an hour wait. No help! Machine gone thru 2 control panels. It is junk no more trying with Lg. Buying an old fashion washer without the electronics that will last.
Just fixed mine and it’s running like new now. Was so fed up with this UE error happening over and over again. Ordered suspension rods part # AJK72909308 and replaced them using another RU-vid video to show me how. Took 20 minutes to replace. Screw LG for not knowing that this fix is this easy and for not helping all of us that spent money on these washers.
I’m so fed up with this washer , I’ve done everything but add the bands . I leveled the feet , I tightened the nut under the drum . It’s like consistent UE message . So many people have this problem you think that it would be a damn recall or something .
