LG top load washing machine - Why did my washing machine stop without completing washing?

  • Troubleshooting

If power supply is interrupted due to a blackout or other causes, your machine may turn off during washing.
If you ran the wash course only, power will be turned off without draining.
If your laundry is placed unevenly, then the machine may stop without completing the spin dry.

Try this

Water is left in the tub.

➔ Can you turn on your washing machine?

Failure of normal power supply due to a blackout, circuit breaker operation, or a broken socket may have turned off your machine.
Check if you can turn on the washing machine.

➔ If you ran selectively the [Wash], [Rinse], or [Wash+Rinse] course?

If you ran [Wash], [Rinse], or [Wash+Rinse] selectively, then the machine turns off without draining.
Turn on the machine again and press the Spin-dry button to start dewatering.

The machine turned off without completing spin-dry.

➔ Is your laundry is placed unevenly?

Uneven placement of your laundry may have prevented normal operation of the spin-dry and thus there may be water left in your laundry.
Spread your laundry evenly, power on the machine and then run spin-dry.

Wrong example: the way the laundry is tilted to one side. Correct example: evenly distributed laundry
