What Makes LG Dishwasher Repairs Different
An overfill flow switch shuts the unit off when it senses too much water, and it can take up to 48 hours of drying with the power off for the switch to reset. Source: LG USA Support - LG Dishwasher Error Code List
QuadWash models run four spray arms rather than two, so a blocked or damaged arm is one of several parts a tech checks for poor cleaning. Source: LG USA - 24 Inch Smart Dishwasher with QuadWash and Adjustable 3rd Rack, 44dB
Common LG Dishwasher Problems

- 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)
