This worked flawlessly. Thank you so much. I admit, I was skeptical with the "tapping" but it worked. Bending back the metal flaps isn't necessary, but it does make it easier to get the metal cover off.

Worked great, THANK YOU! Took 10 mins and now it's running like a champ!!

My daughter has an LG Washer WT4870CW with the same symptoms described in this youtube video. Although she was not getting any errors, it was clear the drain was stuck in drain as all the water was gone, but the pump noise continued. When she tried a new load of clothes all the water going into the washer was quickly being pumped out as the pump never shutoff. This procedure of tapping the relays on the circuit board with the two large black capacitors did the trick. Thanks for posting this article. Please add her washing machine model to this post. The procedure worked like a champ first time.

David, you are awesome! You will not believe this, but after watching this, I thought about it a bit and decided to take a shortcut. I unplugged it, and plugged it back in, which caused the drain pump to turn on (the issue). Instead of taking everything apart and lightly tapping everything, I just slapped the display a few times and the pump stopped. After all these years of using this "specialized technique", it finally paid off!

Thank you! I wasted an hour on the phone with LG support. Their “smart diagnosis” said everything was ok despite the drain pump running continuously. Then the support person said it’s either the drain hose or the drain pump ($150) or the water level sensor ($55) if I wanted to replace them myself, or I could call in authorized service which quoted $200 labor plus parts cost. I tried your relay tapping method and it’s working again! I assume I’ll have to replace the circuit board eventually but mischief managed for now.

I had the same issue and even unplugging and plugging back in, the impeller continued to run. I have the LG style washer with the controls on the back panel and this worked the same after accessing the Control Board. Thanks for the tip!
