LG Dishwasher Lines and Features
How LG Dishwashers Are Built
LG specifies a drain hose no longer than 12 feet with its end held roughly 12 to 40 inches above the floor, and the disposal knockout plug must be removed on new installs. Source: LG USA Support - How to Fix an LG Dishwasher That Is Not Draining (OE Error)
Common LG Dishwasher Problems
- Dishwasher not filling. LG says to confirm the house has water, straighten a kinked inlet hose and make sure the supply valve under the sink is fully open. Source: LG USA Support - [LG Dishwasher] Guide to Error Codes
- 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
