    Romeo Lim,
    Replacing a clutch in a washing machine is simple if you follow a guide and have the proper tools.
    Just be sure that the error code is the same each time and that the clutch is what is truly faulty in your LG washer.

    Shital,
    The LG washer error code ie or IE means there is an issue with the Water inlet valve assembly. Check it with a meter to be sure it is getting power. Also check to see if it may be somehow clogged and therefore not letting water into the tub efficiently.

    Pls help its happening always and pause the process.

    Worry Housewife,
    That error is not in the database but may mean you have a DOOR lock or unlock issue. Can you supply us with the model number of your LG washing machine so we can research further?

    Melaine Fleming,
    LG Washer Error Code CL means that your washer CHILD LOCK is ON. You can find two buttons Temp and Options in the panel. Turn ON the machine, press these two buttons together for 3 seconds and that should reset it or turn it off. The LG washer may have a small face above a lock key that is in between the wash and rinse buttons. Hold the buttons for 5 seconds and it should unlock.

    I pressed the pause button, but the error code “CL” on my LG washer is still engaged. Any other advice?
