PE Error Code - LG Washing Machines

LG Washer - PE Error Code

You are trying to start a program, but the LG washing machine shows a PE error on the display and refuses to wash. Perhaps for the first time the PE error appeared during washing, rinsing or spinning, and now it constantly arises.

In LG models without a screen, the indicators of washing, rinsing and spinning report this error - they all light up or blink at the same time.

Error Decoding

which measures the amount of water in the drum? The LG washing machine “does not understand” how much water is in the tank and does not start washing.

RE is a rather rare mistake, and decoding itself tells where to look for the cause of its occurrence. However, sometimes it’s not at all that the water level switch (pressure switch) is broken, and the error can be fixed on its own.

PE error - in what cases can you fix it yourself

  • If the error occurred for the first time, try unplugging the machine from the mains for 10 to 15 minutes, and then plugging it in again. It is possible that there was a failure in the control module - the brains of the LG machine, and a reboot will help get rid of it.
  • If the washing machine draws and immediately drains the water and then issues a PE code, then the reason may be incorrect installation. The drain is located below the level of the tank of the machine, so the water flows by gravity into the sewer, and an error appears. Connect the washing machine to the sewer correctly yourself or use the installation service of washing machines from RemBytTech.
  • Check the cable connections to the pressure switch. Perhaps they have departed and need to be corrected.

If the above tips did not help to fix the PE error, then there was a breakdown, and your LG washing machine needs professional repair.
