LG SideKick - Why Doesn't My Washing Machine Turn On?

  • Troubleshooting

At a Glance

The cause of power supply failure on you LG SideKick is often a problem related to the electrical lead connected to the washing machine. When an extension cord is used, sufficient current may not be supplied to the washing machine so that the washing machine may not turn on. If many appliances are connected to an extension cord, some appliances may not turn on due to unstable current flow.

Try This

Is electricity being supplied to other electrical products nearby?

➔ If not, check if there is a power outage or if the circuit breaker was tripped.

Turning on the circuit breaker
Is the power cord connected correctly?

➔ Disconnect and re-connect the power cord.

Are you using a multi-tap extension cord?

➔ It is recommended you directly connect the washer to the wall outlet.

If you are using an extension line with an ON/OFF switch, check the switch and then connect another product (e.g., a hair dryer or a mobile phone charger) and see if electricity is being supplied.
