LG Washing Machine CE Error Code Explanation
This combination of letters means that the car's engine is currently experiencing overload.
What to do if the CE error code appears on your LG washing machine monitor:
To begin, you can try to resolve the issue yourself. To do this, follow these steps:
- Check the amount of laundry in the drum.
It is possible that the permissible amount of laundry has been exceeded in weight or volume. You should try unloading some of it from the drum and turning the machine on again.
- Check the control module.
There's a possibility that the control unit has failed. You need to reset it by unplugging your LG washer for 15-20 minutes, then try washing again.
