Washer-dryer combo shows LE1; often associated with water leakage into motor area or motor overload.

Safety first: Immediately unplug the unit. Water and electricity are a serious hazard. Do not operate the machine until the source of the leak is found.

• 1. Inspect for visible leaks:
  • Check under and behind the unit for water.
  • Look around the door gasket, detergent drawer, and rear tub seal for signs of leakage.
• 2. Dry the motor area:
  • Remove the rear panel.
  • If water is present around the rotor/stator, dry thoroughly with towels and allow the area to air dry completely.
• 3. Identify leak source:
  • Inspect the door boot (gasket) for tears.
  • Check the tub-to-pump hose and other internal hoses for cracks or loose clamps.
  • Repair or replace leaking components.
• 4. Inspect motor components:
  • Remove the rotor and inspect magnets for damage.
  • Check the stator for burn marks or corrosion.
  • Replace the LG stator assembly or rotor if damaged.
• 5. Professional service recommended: Because LE1 often involves both water leaks and motor damage, a qualified technician should evaluate and repair the unit.
