LG Dishwasher Lines and Features
What Makes LG Dishwasher Repairs Different
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)
What LG Says to Check First
- 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)
- 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

What Framingham Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Framingham come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
Massachusetts does not issue a separate appliance repair license; running fuel gas piping to appliances and installing their vent piping is gas fitting work that requires a license from the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters.

In Massachusetts, you can check a license with the Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure eLIPSE license verification portal or report a problem to the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, Consumer Advocacy and Response Division.
Questions to Ask a Framingham Technician
- Can you give a written estimate before ordering parts?
