Lol that drives my husband nuts 😂. He’s a “let’s get right to the point” kinda guy too lol Now I just need to learn to get to the point when trying to tell him something, instead of going through every lil detail 😂😂

LG washer didn't start this morning, and I went straight to KZread.... Your quick fix worked... Many thanks

I'm thrilled I found your video instead of calling a repair person! I went to use my washer today and had the same problem. This solution fixed it immediately. Thank you for sharing your information.

Thanks for this video! We were shopping for a new washer when I found your video. Ordered the part and spent 20 minutes changing it out. Worked great, fixed the problem, and was about $500 cheaper than a new machine.

I pulled the plug and waited. Used a power strip and it went right on! It works that's what counts. Thanks for posting.

Fixed my issue. Haven't bought the PCB but this helped. Thank you. Everyone, please post your honest reviews on this product wherever you bought it.

Fixed mine! This never happened before; glad I went straight to KZread to get the quick fix-thanks!

Thanks Kevin! Had the same issues and your vid helped!!! No spark when plugged in so gonna keep an eye on it to see if I have to change out the board.

Thank you for posting this. The temp fix worked great and I just ordered the main board from Amazon. This saved us quite a bit of money.

Thank you so much! No waiting or paying for the service call, and I can now get my laundry done while I'm working on the permanent solution!

Excellent! This is the exact same problem I had with my LG washer. I ordered a replacement board, installed it and it worked just as in the video. Thank you for your help!

Let's start by saying that I'm not the smartest tool in the shed, but I had this problem with my LG washer and I have another possible solution. I found this video and I found other articles on the interweb stating that if you unplug the washer for 24 hours and then plug it in, it'll work again. Of course, I did the unplug thing first, since it was way easier. For me it worked. After several hours (I was too impatient to wait 24 hours) I plugged it back in and it started up. This got me to think that if the board had cr@pped out, it can't fix itself, so it must be something else, like a static charge or something that is causing the board to not work. Waiting the time for the board to discharge may be the solution. I am also aware that the electricity that comes into homes is not always that 'clean' it often has fluctuations in voltage. Could it simply be that my electrical service is the problem? To test this out I simply put a surge protector on my outlet and plugged the washer into the surge protector. I haven't had the problem since and it's been months AND I live on an island where we import our electricity from the mainland and there is a great possibility that fluctuations in voltage are everyday occurrences. Bottom line: unplug your washer for a day, put a surge protector on your outlet and see if this fixes the problem. It is easier and cheaper. If it doesn't work, then follow the video.

@@TheSeaBadger I'll try the 24 hour thing (or in my case, 48 hours, since I'll be gone for the weekend). The method in the video already didn't work, so I'm not too optimistic.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! I had the exact same experience with our LG and the repairman said up to $1100! It worked the first time. Thanks again.

Not worth it as it would be better to buy a new machine instead. If that happens to mine I won''t call the repairman instead will buy a new washer.

Thanks so much, ours had been fainting for months and needed the permanent fix. Ordered the part put it in and voila 😊 the beautiful 🎶🎶 we love to hear when we’ve had days without washing clothes

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! My washer would not power on and I was near tears thinking I'd have to dish out $$$ for a new washer. This video tip worked!!!

Thank you! I used your reset method a few months back & saved your video. So glad I did! Just had to use it for a 2nd time. 👍

Wow, just did this to mine and it worked perfectly. Blown away. thank you!

Wow! That worked for me! Well just the first part. If the problem persists I’ll hand it to a professional. Thank you so much for posting this 😃

Thx so much for this. Mine wouldn’t power on, checked the breaker, wasn’t that, came here, found your video, followed your instructions, washer powered back on! Now I can tell my husband, I did a lil research and think I 😂 know what the problem is, so let’s order that part LOL Thx again 😊

You just made my Day ! Brand New 2020 LG washing machine, is installed for 2 Weeks now and did it already 2 Times.. that trick is Working, good and almost fast ( i have to pull all the machine down to unplug and it sucks, but at least it works) . Thanks a lot !

Thanks, you saved my money great I saw your video 2 AM and tried it immediately and magic happened.

Gros merci pour ce partage, vous avez réglé mon problème sans avoir déboursé quoi que ce soit.

Thanks much man......it worked. Ready to do full day of laundry on Saturday and I was scared.....but this saved me.

That worked perfectly (and there was, indeed, a spark). Thank you so much for posting this!

Thank you! I've been dealing with mine doing the same thing for about a month. I'm gonna try the fix

Thanks for the video and links. Helped me fix my washer in no time!

The temporary fix worked like a charm on mine washer - thank you!!!

Thanks, I did the the steps you recommended to get it started. I thought I was going to have to go to a laundry to do this load which I so needed. As for the permanent fix I am not sure it can be done even by a repairman. I have the matching dryer installed on the top of the washer so it is not accessible. The washer is 13 years old and never have had any problems previously. The laundry room is very tiny and it would be very hard for anyone to do anything in there. I will just have to do the unplug, etc and just wait until the dryer also dies and then replace both. Right now it is working and I will see how it goes for the next load. THANKS!!!

Thank you! Yours was the first solution that popped up and it worked! This stupid washing machine has broken two other times so I was thinking it was going to be much more complicated. :D

I had been doing the temp fix for almost 2 years. Finally purchased the control board and it turned on first try! Just hoping I don't have to go through that pain again! Thank You for your video!

The delivery guy tat dropped off my new lg front washer last November 2020 told me its best to buy a surge protector now I know what he meant my machine won't turn on so I thought give KZread a try might be someone on there talking bout it

My LG doesn't have the steam feature but the same type make (WM2250CW) This repair fixed mine too. The board ran me $275 from repair clinic with shipping and took me about 30 minutes to put it in. Thanks for your vid.

Awesome, thanks ! the temp fix is great, next stop ordering the board, no laundry mat for us.

Well!! Thanks it worked, I definitely need to change the board... (got sparks when plugging).

I got the LG Combo my Friend. Paid $1200 n It not even 4yrs old N it broken down 5x ...What a Piece of Work!!😒

Thanks for linking the original video and the control board fix.

Thanks for posting. The spark was bigger than I expected.

I have been doing this for almost 2 1/2 years when my washer decides it’s going to go on the blink. This trick works! Follow his instructions exactly.

Thank you! The five second trick worked like a charm for me.

Wow you are a genius about the 5 seconds hold, my washer is working now

I have the same no-power problem. It works after I unplugged and IMMEDIATELY plug it back in. I guess this depends on the damage severity of the main-board. Let's see if the problem happens again after my first wash. THANKS A LOT FOR YOUR VIDEO!

You are still helping people thank you so much !!!!

For what it's worth, to save the hassle of reaching over the washer to unplug it every time it went out, I plugged it into a switched surge suppressor that could sit on top of the washer and be easily reached. It has been at least 3 months now and we have not needed to use the switch. The machine turns on every time as it should without fail. May need the board down the road but for now the surge suppressor is working great. Thanks for the reset tip.

I'm glad you found a solution, but 4 years later and LG washers STILL have this exact same problem. They haven't replaced the faulty board. $200 isn't an insignificant repair cost. They are willfully ignoring this problem with a simple fix.

Thank you!!! Saved me a service call too! To save the “spark” and since the plug is difficult to reach, I flip the switch in my electrical panel.

Thank you so much! Just got my washer back on.

I love videos like this. Thank you thank you! So helpful and such a money saver!

Thanks so much for the trick, worked like a charm! This has only happened for me this one time so I am going to continue with the little trick for a little while longer (no blue spark for me either so hopefully that means its not as bad).

Thank you very much. I have the same problem try what to showed on the video and it worked great. I will order the part change it myself and save me soon money.

Thank you! This just worked for my LG washer!

This saved me from having to buy a new washer right now. Thank you!

lol! Having the same problem again~I have already replaced the door lock~ that seemed to do the trick...so now Im going to try this~at least I can still get my laundry done in the meantime! thanks for the tip!!

Thank you very much. It worked for my washer. You're the man 👍

Thanks for the video, people like you make the world a better place! Wondering if replacing the board worked long term?

HA! My LG washer started giving us the same issue today. Had it for like 8 years but i figure it will be that circuit board thats faulty.Thanks for the video!

I can’t believe this actually Worked!!! Life saver!!

Thank you. The reset worked on mine, hopefully it’s just that for now.

Thanks for the help. It didn't fix it per se but it had me check and realize the power cord came out of the outlet

Thanks mine just started doing this but $200 for the board wow!!! I'll deal with the unplug and plug back in at this rate.

Tried all of the suggested solutions on youtube, and almost gave up. The last one worked, I turned off the washer, then used a hairdryer to lightly heat the start button for about two minutes and it worked. It was either the severe cold weather we are having causing condensation/moisture to affect the button. After heating with the hairdryer for a few minutes, I turned the washer on, then selected a cycle, then pushed the start button and it worked.

Fixed mine too! Thank you so much!

I played the plug unplug/reset game many times...worked occassionally. I found that if you use the side palm Little finger side of your hand and press firmly on all the cycle choices left of the knob the system lights up and i am able to select wash cycle. Good luck-just wanted to share! Have not had to buy a circuit board yet.

Thank you for posting this. The reboot worked.

Thank you for this. This just fixed my LG which stopped.

hello Kevin, thanks for this video and the permanent fix replacing the main control board(PCB). could you provide the link to step by step guid to replace the main control board from repair clinic website . i am unable to find one for my model WM3431hw.

I doubted you, my bad. Worked like a charm.

Thank you! I had to turn power off at the breaker because I can't access the plug. It worked!

Thank you, just saved me from running out for a new washer.

Thanks! That tricked work. We'll see if I need to replace the board in the next week.

Thanks ! Had the same problem. Applied the same solution. I got the same result !

This video is still helpful. Just used it today. THANKS

Wow! Thank you for the great information! It totally worked. I went crazy and held the buttons for 8 sec. Where do we send the $85? :-)

Thanks for the video! Helped me out so far!

After researching, I found a permanent fix without changing the $200 motherboard. I had the exact same problem shown here. Here's what worked for me: Unplug the machine, then press the power button for 5 seconds, and then press the start button for 5 seconds (this dumps any additional electricity from the capacitor). Then, I left machine unplugged all night. The next morning, I plugged it in with a surge protector in the outlet. Everything works perfectly now. I'm not sure why the surge protector made a difference but it did. A power strip should work equally well, if it has surge protection built in.

@Su Ya Rouhola It prevents surges of electricity from reaching your electronics at their peak. It helps to keep plugged devices safe. You can buy them everywhere from Target, Walmart, or Amazon. Here is an example: www.amazon.com/Single-Protector-Grounded-Adapter-Indicator/dp/B07NVGQNW5/

I do this my washing still not working, I just did a dry cycle I turn it off early then try too do a new load my washing won’t start, what u think the prob, I try to plug it on in other outlet still won’t start, thanx!

Thanks for the info, this is really helpful. The only problem is that the repair clinic website doesn't carry the part anymore and I cannot find it anywhere on-line. Do you have another resource you may have to fix the circuit board? I appreciate your help in advance.

Thank you! I was able to fix the problem on my washer!!!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU SAVED ME REPAIR FEE I LOVE U

Thanks for your Video, I can see I am not the only one. It does not have a full washing cycle in it's lifetime yet, just installed this noon and there it goes. In my case, it just not come back to life with the button sequence and keep sparking when plugging it in.

You just saved my life thank you for sharing ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Fixed mine for $10.00. I tried all the switch combinations and not spark, no spark. Also, it is not a capacitor issue. Those are all distractions. The problem is simple. The solution to change the on/off switch. Let me know if I should make a video.

Thank you for this informative do it yourself!! I did as you explained and it worked great, Tried the 2nd Load and back again with the same problem. I think the computer system this washer has is fried :-( Gonna be pricey or just get a new one. Thank you again !!

Thank you very much!! Worked perfectly!! I LOVE KZread

Gotta ask, did this last? When I do the hold the button thing it works for about the time it takes to do a load then js right back

Life saver. Thank you. First result on google search. Thank you.

thank you just had this problem you saved me money

Thanks so much. This worked like a charm for me.

Thanks! Just found this and it worked for me as well. I think the button pushing is unnecessary. I unplugged the unit for 30 seconds and plugged it back in and had the same results.

Worked for me. Thanks for posting this!
