A LG dishwasher shares most of its basic parts with other dishwashers, but its filter design, drying system, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions LG and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with LG, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.

- Dishwasher making noise. LG treats fill whistling and some air-sucking sounds as normal, says rattling usually means loose dishes or an unseated filter, and flags squealing or grinding as a possible pump problem. Source: LG USA Support - LG Dishwasher Noises
- Dishwasher not draining. LG says to clean the mesh filter first, then look for a crushed or kinked drain hose and check the air gap and disposal knockout. Source: LG USA Support - How to Fix an LG Dishwasher That Is Not Draining (OE Error)
