LG Washer Repair: TurboWash, TwinWash, and Direct Drive Models
LG revolutionized the laundry industry with its Direct Drive motor technology, which eliminates the belt and pulley system used in conventional washers. This design reduces noise, vibration, and mechanical wear -- but when the Direct Drive motor or its components fail, the repair requires a technician who understands LG's specific motor architecture. The TurboWash system adds high-pressure nozzles that reduce cycle times by up to 30 minutes, while the TwinWash system allows a secondary mini-washer to be installed beneath the main unit for simultaneous small loads.
The most common LG washer issue we service is the LE error code, which signals a locked motor. This can be caused by a worn hall sensor (rotor position sensor), a faulty stator assembly, overloaded laundry, or a wiring harness fault between the motor and the main control board. We also frequently address drainage failures caused by debris-clogged pump filters, door boot seal tears that cause leaking, and bearing failures that produce a loud rumbling noise during spin cycles. Our technicians carry genuine LG parts and are experienced with every generation of the Direct Drive platform.
LG Refrigerator Repair: InstaView and Linear Compressor Systems
LG's InstaView Door-in-Door refrigerators feature a tinted glass panel that illuminates with two quick knocks, letting you see inside without opening the door. Behind the innovative design, LG refrigerators use a linear compressor that operates more quietly and efficiently than conventional reciprocating compressors. However, the linear compressor has been the subject of widespread reliability concerns, and compressor failure is the most common major repair we perform on LG refrigerators.
Symptoms of LG compressor failure include the refrigerator running constantly without reaching set temperatures, a clicking sound from the rear of the unit as the compressor attempts to start and fails, and warm temperatures in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. Beyond compressor issues, we also service evaporator fan motor failures, defrost system malfunctions, ice maker problems, and control board errors. Our experienced technicians perform sealed-system diagnostics and compressor replacements for LG refrigerators throughout NYC.

What Our Clients Say About LG Repair
"Our LG front-load washer was flashing the LE error and wouldn't spin. NYC Sub-Zero & Viking diagnosed a worn hall sensor on the motor and replaced it the same visit. The washer has been running perfectly since. Very professional and fairly priced."
Frequently Asked Questions About LG Repair in NYC
What does the LE error code mean on my LG washer?
The LE error code indicates a locked motor or motor failure. Common causes include a worn hall sensor, a faulty stator assembly, or a problem with the rotor position sensor. If resetting the washer by unplugging it for 10 minutes does not clear the code, a component has likely failed and needs professional diagnosis and replacement.
Is it worth replacing the compressor in my LG refrigerator?
In many cases, yes. An LG linear compressor replacement restores full cooling performance and is significantly less expensive than purchasing a new refrigerator -- especially when factoring in NYC delivery logistics, old-unit disposal, and potential kitchen modifications. We evaluate the overall condition of the appliance and give you an honest recommendation before proceeding with any repair.
My LG washer fills with water but won't drain. What is wrong?
An LG washer that fills but does not drain typically has a clogged drain pump filter, a failed drain pump motor, or a kinked or obstructed drain hose. The drain pump filter on LG front-load washers is accessible from a small panel at the bottom-front of the unit and should be cleaned periodically. If cleaning the filter does not resolve the issue, the pump itself may need replacement.
