LG appliances we repair
PowerClean Appliance Repair is an independent company that repairs LG washers, dryers, refrigerators, ice makers, dishwashers, ranges, ovens and cooktops across Salt Lake, Utah and Davis counties. We come out the same day whenever possible, use OEM parts whenever available, and credit the $80 diagnostic toward the repair if you go ahead.
Washers
Direct-drive front-loaders and top-loaders, including stacked washer-dryer towers — door-lock faults, off-balance spins, drain problems and failed controls.
LG washersDryers
Electric and gas models, including the dryer in a stacked tower — no heat, slow drying, squealing or thumping, and dryers that won't start.
LG dryersRefrigerators
French-door and side-by-side models, including those with LG's linear compressor — not cooling, warm on one side, leaking or frosting up.
LG refrigeratorsIce makers
The ice maker in the freezer or in the door of an LG refrigerator — no ice, slow ice or ice frozen into a solid block.
LG ice makersOvens
Gas and electric range ovens and electric wall ovens — no heat, uneven baking or a temperature that won't hold.
LG ovensRanges and cooktops
Gas, electric and induction ranges and cooktops — burners or elements that won't heat, and touch controls that stop responding.
LG ranges and cooktopsDishwashers
LG dishwashers that won't drain, don't clean or dry, leak onto the floor or stop mid-cycle.
LG dishwashersCommon LG problems and what causes them
Washer shows UE and won't finish the spin
UE means the washer can't balance the load after several tries, so it stops the spin and leaves the clothes wet. One heavy item, an overloaded drum or a washer rocking on its feet is the typical trigger. If UE keeps coming back with balanced loads, we check the shock absorbers and springs on a front-loader or the suspension rods on a top-loader.
Washer shows DE and won't start
DE means the control isn't getting a closed-and-locked signal from the door or lid, so the washer won't start or stops mid-cycle. Check first for a sock caught in the door seal or a lid that isn't fully shut. If DE comes back with the door or lid firmly shut, we test the lock assembly, the latch and the wiring on a washing machine repair visit.
Refrigerator runs but won't cool
When the freezer is cold but the fresh-food side is warm, cold air isn't getting through: a failed evaporator fan, an air damper stuck closed or a defrost fault that has iced over the evaporator coil. If both sides are warm while it runs, our refrigerator repair visit checks the condenser fan and coil, the controls and the compressor — and, on linear-compressor models, the board that drives it. If the compressor itself has failed, we can replace it, and you get the price before any work so you can weigh it against a new refrigerator.
Dryer runs cold
When an electric LG dryer tumbles but stays cold, first switch its breaker fully off and back on: if one side of the double breaker has lost power, the drum still turns but the heater gets none. If it still won't heat, the likely causes are a burned-out heating element, a blown thermal fuse or a failed thermistor. A thermal fuse usually blows because the vent is restricted, so we inspect the vent path and clear blockages too, or the new fuse would blow the same way.
Clothes still damp after a full cycle
If your LG dryer gets warm but needs two or three cycles per load, the cause is more often airflow than a failed part. Typical culprits are a lint-packed vent, a crushed hose behind the dryer or a stuck outside flap. On a repair visit we check the vent path first and clear any blockage, then test the heat side and the moisture sensor bars, which end a sensor-dry cycle early when dryer-sheet residue coats them.
Oven won't heat or bakes unevenly
On electric LG ranges and wall ovens, no heat most often means a burned-out bake element, a failed temperature sensor or a relay on the control board; on gas models, an igniter that glows but is too weak to open the gas valve. An oven that runs hot or cold points to the sensor, while uneven baking points to a failing element, the convection fan or a worn door gasket. If you smell gas, leave and call your gas utility.
LG washer codes we're asked about
| Code | Appliance | What it usually means | What to check first |
|---|---|---|---|
| UE | Washer | Unbalanced load: the washer couldn't balance the drum for the spin after several tries. | Pause, spread the load out or add a couple of towels, and restart the spin. Make sure the washer sits level and doesn't rock. |
| DE | Washer | Door or lid lock fault: the control didn't get a closed-and-locked signal. | Open the door or lid, clear anything caught in it, close it firmly and restart the cycle. |
A code is a starting point, not a diagnosis — the diagnostic visit confirms the actual cause before any part is replaced.
What happens when you book an LG repair?
Each LG repair begins in your home with a diagnosis by one of our two technicians: Blake Lonsberry, our owner, who has 14+ years in appliance repair, or Jake Marriott, our lead technician. For $80, we test the appliance, find the fault and go over your repair options and pricing before any work begins. Our technicians carry the components that fail most often, so most repairs are finished in one visit. Have your model number handy when you call or book online — it tells us which parts to bring.
- OEM LG parts whenever they're available
- $80 diagnostic, credited toward the repair
- Same-day visits whenever possible
