The drain pump in an LG washing machine can break down for a number of reasons. The most common cause of failure is threads, buttons, paper clips, hair, and other foreign objects getting into the snail. This can cause the impeller to jam or even destroy it. The pump may also start to malfunction. To extend the life of the pump, it is important to carefully check the pockets of your clothes and remove any foreign objects before each wash.

Signs of a broken drain pump in an LG washing machine

Replacing the drain pump in an LG washing machine is quite a complicated matter and it is very problematic to do it yourself at home. We advise you to seek help from a specialized LG service center, whose technicians will quickly determine the cause of the malfunction, dismantle the failed pump and install a new part in its place.

The main signs of a drain pump failure, according to LG service center technicians, are:

• Cracking and clicking sounds that occur during or before the flush:
• The presence of leaks in the pump body,
• The washing machine stops during the washing process,
• A loud humming noise that occurs when water is drained.

If there are problems with the drain pump, the OE code usually appears on the washing machine display. However, before calling a specialist to repair your household appliance, make sure that your conclusions about the malfunction are correct - often customers claim that the pump in their device is broken, although in fact they simply forgot to activate a special washing program without draining on the machine.

Reasons for the breakdown of the drain pump of the LG washing machine

Most often, the following reasons lead to malfunctions in the drain pump:

• Getting a foreign object inside the housing - debris, small pieces of clothing and dirt block the movement of the impeller and cause the blades to break:
• Wear of mechanical parts - when the bushings and shaft are heavily worn out, the impeller flies off the shaft axis and pumping water into the drain with the pump becomes impossible;
• Problems with the operation of the pump motor - occurs as a result of voltage surges, winding breakage, etc.;
• Water gets on the coil - moisture causes a short circuit and the drain pump burns out (in this case, repair is impossible, so to restore the functionality of the washing machine, the technician has to install a new drain pump).

A special table of codes that are displayed by the system on the device's display helps to determine the cause of the breakdown - for this purpose, special modules are installed in LG washing machines. Using information from such a table allows the technician in some cases to save time on additional diagnostics and proceed to repair immediately after identifying the malfunction.
