LG Appliances We Repair

LG is one of the most widely owned appliance brands in Denver Metro homes, particularly for refrigerators and laundry. The brand invests heavily in proprietary technology: the Inverter Linear Compressor in refrigerators, the Direct Drive motor in washers, Sensor Dry in dryers, and the ThinQ smart platform across the entire lineup. Each of these creates failure modes that require brand-specific knowledge to diagnose correctly.

We service LG french door, side-by-side, and bottom-freezer refrigerators; front-load and top-load washing machines; dryers; dishwashers; ovens; and ranges. If you are not sure who repairs LG appliances in Denver, Wilson & Myers is the answer.

Common LG Problems We Fix

LG Refrigerator Not Cooling

LG refrigerator not cooling is the most searched LG problem, and for good reason. LG fridge not cooling calls make up the largest share of our LG repair workload. The symptom comes in several forms, and each points to a different cause.

When an LG refrigerator is not cooling but running, the compressor is operating but failing to produce adequate refrigeration. On LG models with the Inverter Linear Compressor, this is the most common and well-documented failure pattern. The LG linear compressor fridge not cooling symptom is distinct from a standard compressor failure and requires specific diagnostic steps. An LG inverter linear refrigerator not cooling that has been running loudly before the cooling drops is almost always pointing at the compressor assembly.

LG French door refrigerator not cooling calls are also common, particularly where the defrost system has failed and ice has accumulated on the evaporator coils, blocking all airflow. An LG refrigerator not cooling or freezing where neither section maintains temperature usually indicates a sealed system problem. Some owners attempt an LG fridge not cooling reset before calling for service; while a reset can clear software errors, it will not address a mechanical or sealed system failure.

We test the compressor, the sealed system, the defrost circuit, and the evaporator fan before recommending any repair. For freezer-specific faults, see our freezer repair page.

LG Ice Maker Not Working

LG ice maker not working is one of the most common calls we receive on french door and side-by-side models. The LG refrigerator ice maker not working pattern on french door units is often caused by ice buildup in the ice maker compartment, similar to the Samsung freeze-over issue. LG fridge ice maker not working on these models can occur even when the rest of the refrigerator cools correctly.

The LG ice maker not making ice symptom can also come from a failed water inlet valve, a restricted supply line, or a faulty ice maker module. LG ThinQ ice maker not working on newer connected models sometimes involves a sensor or software fault rather than a hardware failure. LG Craft Ice maker not working is a specific issue on models with the round-ice feature, where the secondary ice maker mechanism jams or the water flow to it fails. The LG in-door ice maker not working on door-in-door models has its own failure pattern involving the door cavity temperature. We carry parts for all common LG ice maker configurations and diagnose on the first visit. See our ice maker repair page for more.

LG Dryer Not Heating

LG dryer not heating is a fast diagnosis in most cases. On LG electric dryers, a burned heating element or a tripped thermal fuse stops the heat. LG gas dryer not heating calls most often involve a failed igniter or a faulty gas valve coil.

LG Sensor Dry dryer not heating is a separate symptom worth knowing. When the moisture sensor becomes coated with dryer sheet residue, it reads the load as dry before it actually is and ends the heat cycle early. LG Tromm dryer not heating on older Tromm front-load models typically points to the heating element or the thermal fuse. LG ThinQ dryer not heating on newer connected models sometimes logs an error code that identifies the failed component before we even open the unit. We test the heating circuit and the sensor on every dryer call.

LG Washer Not Spinning

When an LG washing machine is not spinning, the load comes out soaked. For LG washer repair near me or LG dryer repair near me across Denver Metro, same-day service is available most days. LG washer not spinning on front-load models is often caused by a door latch sensor fault or a motor control board issue. The LG Direct Drive motor eliminates the belt, but bearing wear in the motor assembly can still cause spin failure and produces a grinding noise before the spin stops entirely.

LG washer not turning on is a related call that points to the control board, the door latch, or a power supply fault rather than the motor. The LE error code on LG washers indicates motor overload, which is one of the most frequent LG-specific error codes and points to a failing motor or a control board fault. LG ThinQ washer error codes log internally and help us arrive prepared with the right component. If the machine is also not draining, an LG error code OE will appear, pointing to the drain pump or the filter.

LG Dishwasher Not Draining

LG dishwasher not draining leaves standing water in the tub after the cycle ends. A clogged drain filter is the most common and easiest fix. A failed drain pump motor or a blocked drain hose are the next most likely causes. On LG dishwashers, the OE error code signals a drain fault and appears on the display when the cycle cannot complete the drain sequence. We check the filter, the hose loop height, and the pump on every dishwasher not draining call.

LG Oven Not Heating

LG oven not heating splits between gas and electric causes. On gas models, igniter failure is the most common: the igniter glows but cannot open the gas valve. On electric models, a burned bake element or broil element is usually responsible. LG ThinQ ranges and ovens log error codes that narrow the diagnosis before we arrive. For ranges and cooktops, see our range and stove repair page.

LG Appliance Repair FAQ

1. Who repairs LG appliances in Denver?

Wilson & Myers services LG appliances throughout Denver Metro. Whether you need LG refrigerator repair near me, washer, dryer, or dishwasher service, same-day availability is most days. Book online or call a pro to check scheduling.

2. My LG refrigerator is not cooling but I can hear it running. What is wrong?

On LG models with the Inverter Linear Compressor, this is a well-known failure pattern where the compressor runs but loses the ability to produce adequate refrigeration. It is a mechanical failure, not a software issue, and a reset will not fix it. A diagnostic visit is needed to confirm the compressor is the cause before any parts are ordered.

3. My LG washer shows an LE error code. What does it mean?

LE on an LG washer indicates motor overload. The machine detected excessive resistance in the motor circuit and shut down to prevent damage. The cause is usually a failing motor or a motor control board fault. It can also appear when the drum is overloaded, but if it shows up on normal loads it is a hardware issue that needs service.

4. Do you repair LG ThinQ appliances?

Yes. LG ThinQ refrigerators, washers, and dryers are among the most common LG units we service. The ThinQ platform logs error codes internally that help us diagnose faster and arrive prepared. We service all LG ThinQ models across Denver Metro.

5. Is it worth repairing an LG refrigerator with a failed linear compressor?

Usually yes, depending on the unit’s age and overall condition. LG compressor replacements are a significant repair, but still considerably less than a new refrigerator. Our technicians give you an honest cost-versus-replace assessment before any work begins.
