Shown on front-load, top-load and wash tower models.

Difficulty

Most people can clear this one at home with simple checks.

Safety first: unplug the washer (or switch off its breaker) before touching filters, hoses or panels. If you smell burning or gas, or see water near the outlet, stop and call a professional.

How to fix LG PF

  1. Restart the cycle

    Press Start/Pause to resume, or pick the cycle again and start it.

  2. Check the power supply

    If the code keeps returning, make sure the plug is fully seated in the outlet and that the breaker hasn't tripped. Avoid using extension cords.

When to call a technician

If PF keeps returning without a real outage, turn off the faucets, unplug the washer and contact LG service. If other things on the same circuit also lose power, have an electrician check the outlet and circuit.
