Can you run a simple SPIN? If so, I would try a few of those, then a RINSE & SPIN … see if it drains. You might have to find the specs to open it up and access the hose from inside the machine though. I haven’t had to do that. You should be able to find help about that online searching “LG Washer plugged up drain hose” for starters.

Good info. However I left my front drain hose go way too long and it is plugged solid. was able to clean out as far as a wire could reach from the plug end, however still plugged at the inner end. Any ideas on how to get at the enclosed end?

OMG how I thank you. Fingers crossed. Exact same problem. I’m 1/2 way thru a regular cycle now.

Thank you so much, for a superb post. You might want to tag it “spin only” too, to move to the top of the LG search results. You made my day!

Thanks! I didn’t know aobut the spin cycle. We thought it was a belt broken on the machine and the spin cycle wasn’t working. Nope. OE error strikes again. But I forgive my machine. I’ve had it since ’06 and I’ve never cleaned the filter that I didn’t realize needed cleaning. ) A cork, a key, rubber bands, yucky ,stinky, linty, ewwwy stuff. Running the spin cycle now and then we’ll running a regular cycle. Hopefully we’ll be fixed. But at least the repair man will know where to start and I won’t get lectured. )

Thanks for the tip on the spin cycle! Sometimes the power button on my machine accidentally gets bumped, I hated to have to start a wash all over again because of that! I tried out the spin cycle and it worked great.

Thank you!

I’m glad to have helped someone (you, labrax, in particular) with my post. It’s frustrating when stuff goes wrong that just doesn’t seem like it should and then it’s hard to find the answers. BTDT so many times, that’s why I make sure to document stuff like this when I have problems.
