Lg washer door hinge problem.

Answered by anonymous 3 years ago. If any of these components stops working when you have the door open the door won t lock. Once the washer door is closed the washer can begin operating. As the washer is in operation it begins to leak and the only way to stop it is by pushing in the left side of the door hinge side.

The hinge is pushing the door away from the seal causing the leak. Again if i push the hinge side in the leak stops but the tension of the hinge pushes the door away from the seal. If you look at the door the right side is much tighter than the left side. Please try again later.

A safety switch that detects whether the washer door is closed a latch and a locking mechanism. I am moving to a new condo. If the door lock is defective the washer door will not latch properly. Replace the washer door hinge.

The door lock secures the washer door shut during operation.
