Possible Causes
Blown household fuse or tripped breaker, Faulty power outlet, Damaged power cord, Failed main control board or noise filter
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Do not open electrical panels unless you are qualified. Unplug the washer before internal checks.
- Verify outlet: Plug a lamp or other appliance into the same outlet to confirm power. Reset any tripped breakers.
- Check power cord: Inspect the LG washer's cord for cuts, burns, or loose plug blades.
- Test different outlet: If possible, temporarily plug the washer into a known-good outlet (no extension cords).
- Inspect noise filter: Remove top panel and check the line filter board for burnt components or loose connections.
- Control board: If power is present at the filter but the control panel remains dark, the main PCB or user interface board may be failed and require replacement.
