Hi there. I've got the same problem. My LG model is WF-SP800v. May I know where to attach the magnet? I followed your instruction but it doesn't work. Appreciate your hep

I too face the same problem. Where I can buy the magnet in Singapore? From LG or any local shops?

Hi all, I bought the magnet from LG spare parts @ 991D Alexandra road. It costs S$3+ and now the washing machine works perfect. Thanks.

I have this same type of LG W/M but the fault with mine is that it does not drain the water after each session of wash. I have to manually bring down the waste hose for the next session of the wash to continue.

Can I get help on how to fix it?

Found the magnet inside of the washing machine. Thanks!!!!

We are in Costa Rica, a technician was about to charge us $200.00 to order and install a new door!!

Great Forum!!!

Hey its great it worked...

Tnk'u....

I tried taping a small fridge magnet to the location where it would sense it, without success; I tried another, slightly bigger, fridge magnet and that didn't work either. Finally I tried an even larger fridge magnet and it worked! Hurrah! Thank you so much

Thanks!it works

I have some problems.. my lg washing machine display PE.. how i want to fix??

Azezol_17@yahoo.com

i have the exact washer.i want to know where exactly do u put the magnet on the lid.there is a small rubber thing and rectangle like metal thing so where do i fit the magnet

This is awesome!!! thanks for the tip! very clever :)

Thanks a lot!!

saved me Money:-)

I had a problem with my LG- intello wash . During its operations the noise level is too irritating . What I should do to reduce the noise level? Please help me out

This is in Singapore.

In my case I went to the hardware store and buy Super magnets. I chose button ones cos there are small. Tape them to the receiving end (not the cover) of the washing machine so it's closer to the sensor. You should be able to fix two buttons on top of each other and still be able to close the cover.

Pls what happens when my LG turbodrum 6.5kg is installed and the clothes loaded but the hot and wash lights are blinking but not washing

thank you,i just fix it,really helpful alot

thank you .

I have a 7.5KG top loader which would not work (dreaded PE error). After searching the internet I realised it was the lid magnet mechanism that had failed. Adding a really strong magnet to the area where the lid magnet operated had no effect. I removed the display panel and the PCB assy where I identified the reed switch which was not working. I cut away the plastic holding the reed switch and broke open the glass revealing the two terminals which I soldered together, problem fixed machine working fine without the lid switch.

Previous post should have been de error.

Hi.. my machine is giving DE error.. i checked and the magnet in the door is still there. Tried to replace tht magnet with new one but old magnet is not coming out... wht to do??

wow it's working. Thanks . Fixed it temporarily. Can you suggest how to fix it permanently and which side to stick. Great help.

Brilliant! Thanks for the help. Found our magnet on the inside of the drum. It was difficult to find where the magnet was supposed to be. (WFT556 has it slightly off centred to the right at the front of the lid, the magnet slides up under the plastic clip). Once you've worked out where it goes, if you can't secure it back where it was before, tape a 10x5mm magnet to the machine itself so the safety feature is no longer active.

so far so good...popped a name tag badge backing inside lid, Thanks heaps. hopefully will find original magnet in wash.

Thanks for this knowledge... It works perfectly... Thanks again guys... Genius!!!!!

Wow!!! I am so surprised I could even find this answer when I encountered exactly the same problem!!! Well done!!

omg.. this prob was driving me crazy. read this article, learnt it was a broken or missing magnet.. searched for all of 2 mins maybe and found the magnet on the ground.. Put back in place and viola .... machine is washing like its new. lol.. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Thank you it's very good keep it up

Hi my LG Turbo drum top load full with water, Water did not come out. So how to do it? What the problem?

Thank you, this resolved the problem. I'm so relieved

hello, i have a lg wfs1134et washing machine.

when i start a washing process it fills water, then starts the wash. after it finish washing it drains the water. when it needs to rinse the clothes it cant fill water there is a zooming noise coming

Thanks! I retrieved the magnet and voila! It's working :)

Don't wonne start everything is on but only do wonne start

Thank you so much for this guidance. With the door error I could figure out my self that the machine is not able to recognise that the door is closed but couldn't figure out how does the interlock system work and how does the machine get the signal that the door is closed. I could fix the problem now by just buying a small magnet worth rs 10 which I got at a local hardware shop. Thanks once again for your guidance.

My LG top load washer m/ WT5680HWA control panel lights up but keeps giving me CL. response. I'm not able to start washer. Is there a way to see what the magnet looks like or where to purchase one? ( if this is the problem )

Magnet helped but now again DE error surfaced. No amount of magnets seem to help. I need help

Hi there I have a LG +3punch wf-561spp. The problem is ,when it on spin cycle ,it drains the water but doesnt complete the cycle. It goes back to 14 minutes an fills water again. And begin to wash again. Please help . got this machine for 18 years and it never let me down. Thanks

A GREAT BIG THANKS! I managed to solve my LG top loader problem with your help! It as flashing dE and as you shared, indeed the magnet had dropped out due to wear and tear. You have saved me $$$! Thank you so much! - DavidO

This is so real, and the thought of having it fixed by a handy man for so much more just evaporated. Got my washing machine working upto speed again.

Thanks for this information!!

Hi, my washing machine has no indication at all upon plug in, it seams there is no dc power . Can u send me the electronics circuit diagram no. EBR740676 LGE DB120718 L/S 657E PLS.

Thanks! I found the magnet stuck to the drum, and put it back with some tape. It works! However, the magnet is rusty and about to disintegrate. I need to get a new one.

We have a fuzzy logic 14.0kg T1450teft and at first on water level 5 it would keep running. Now tonight even level 1 keeps running and the washing machine now wont wash… how do we fix this?

Our washer looks like it has a little latch under the lid. Tried doing a load and paused it while it was filling with water so I could add a couple more items and when I closed the lid again it locked and then said “de”

it sounds like it’s trying to work (making clicking noises) but it’s not unlocking. Tried to unplug option but I’ll have to try this way when I get home… all of my work clothes are stuck in the washer in the meantime!! I had to go out and buy new outfits for the entire week because the soonest LG support could send someone out was today (washer broke on Monday)

Kindly please tell me the weight of the washing model T1003TEFT1 can wash

if anyone knows

Kindly someone tell me

Hi, I am Michael from Nigeria. Could anyone tell me how to remove the child lock from LG turbo drum 6.5kg washing machine?

Yaayyy!!! Found the magnet fallen from the soap dispenser drawer on my front loader. No water would fill the machine. Finally found where it had fallen from and replaced as per these instructions. Wow! Works like a charm! I'm soooo happy! Thank you!

Thank you for the TIPS! My 12 years old LG washing wachine is now back on duty. Savvy!

all well but how and where do you stick magnet - inside lid facing down / on top facing down please help

help please - have the same problem with magnet that broke off.  got new magnet how do I stick it on the lid and where -

I have a fuzzy logic 15kg wf-t1570 I see where a magnet would have been and looks like I am getting aOE flashing light but it will not discharge water no rinse/spin do I have a magnetic switch

THANKYOU SO MUCH! this is very useful advice! Even though we didnt have the same model that is displayed , THIS ADVICE WORKED! the trick is to find the little magnet that fell out of place—try looking for it in the washing machine, May be attached to the walls as its magnetic.

THEN, the tricky part is finding where this magnet belongs! This magnet is used to help the machine detect that the lid is closed. My machine showed up with a E2 error message ( meaning lid is not closed) . THE compartment for this piece of metal( magnet) was tucked in a little gap beneath the lid door on the left hand side for me, so hidden! Goodluck and thankyou!
