Mend LG WD-1238C Front Washing Machine Cycle

How to fix my lg front load washing machine model number wd-1238c?

My washing machine did a cycle, then I came back to do another load and it would not turn on. Then I pressed a few buttons and all I can get it to do is display CL in the display. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it.

Ok if you have no LEDs especially LED 1 then either there's a proplem with the pcb/failed,or you have a loose connection on the pcb.

If you are covered by lg warranty,contact them.

if you are not and you wish to investigate the problem then,

isolate the power(pull the plug)

remove the top of the washer, by removing the torx headed screws at either side on the back panel,

check the connectors on the pcb,

pull one connector off at a time making a note of its location,

refit making sure its nice and tight,

do this with all connectors,

if it doesn't fix the issue,then its highly likely that the pcb has failed.

you may want to consider having it repaired by lg under their fixed priced scheme,


hope this info helps

ps I hope its a loose connection

good luck........

I turned it off for 10 mins and it beeped when I turned it on, but still nothing. No display, nothing.

I can get the CL off, but even when I do I have no power to anything. Any ideas, thanks for responding so quick.

Try pressing the Rinse+ and Pre Wash button simultaneously for 3 seconds,

CL stands for child lock,

use the above method to turn the CL off.
