LG Dishwasher Repair for Owners, Renters and Landlords
We are independent and have no tie to LG. If the dishwasher is still inside its LG warranty, the manufacturer should be your first call. Once that coverage has ended, include the model number and the symptom in your booking so parts can be looked up ahead of the visit.
How a Dishwasher Repair Visit Works
Tell Us What's Wrong
Name the make, add the model number if it is handy, and describe the symptom. A picture of the label inside the door lets us check parts.
Diagnosis at Your Home
The technician tests the appliance along with its power, water, drain, gas or vent connections until the fault is confirmed.
A Price Before Work
We name the failed part and give you the cost of fixing it. Work starts only after you agree.
Repair and Check
The part is installed and the appliance is run through a cycle so you can watch it working.
How LG designs its dishwashers
LG dishwashers use a direct-drive wash motor, an independent drain pump and a leak tray under the tub watched by a float. When water reaches that tray, the machine shows AE or E1 and runs the drain pump as a safety measure, so the question becomes where the water came from: a door gasket, a sump seal, a loose hose connection or overflowing suds. OE means it couldn't drain, usually a clogged filter, a blocked air gap or disposal inlet, or a failed pump. IE is a fill problem; HE points to the heater circuit. QuadWash models add rotating spray arms that jam with debris. We clear and test in that order, because a wet tray without a leak search just brings the code back.
Common failure points on LG dishwashers
- AE code from water in base pan
- OE drain code at disposal inlet
- HE heater circuit fault
- QuadWash arm jammed by utensil
- Door gasket leaking at corner

Still have a question?
Get in touch with the brand, the symptom and, if you can find it, the model number. Some things we can answer right away; others need a technician in front of the machine.
Water has reached the base pan and tripped the leak float. Too much detergent or dish soap in the machine can cause it, but so can a real leak. We find where the water came from, dry the pan and test the switch.
The tub didn't reach its fill level in the time the control allows. Make sure the hot-water shutoff under the sink hasn't been left partly closed. If it's wide open, the inlet valve screen, the valve or the flow sensor are the usual causes.
