4. Check whether the drain hose is
blocked by foreign objects. It may
happen in case of the hose is a little
kinked.
PV Case
(for Non-Pump Model only)
1. Check whether the PV asm is
blocked by foreign objects.

works normally after
reassembling.
(PV link & drain motor
lever should be
assembled accurately.)

Drain Motor
(for Non-Pump Model only)
1. Check whether the drain motor is
normally returned after turning
power off.
(It is considered normal if the lever
of the drain motor is fully pulled out
by the PV spring)
PV Case
1. If water drains though the drain
motor is normally returned, check
whether PV asm is blocked by
foreign objects or the bellows in
the PV asm is deformed.
Controller
1. Check whether the drain motor or
the drain pump works immediately
after power is turned on.

Change the PV bellows.
Change the PV bellows.
(The bellows may swell
up if it contact petroleum
or petrochemical
substance because it is
made of rubber)
Change the controller.
9) Drain error happens while water drains normally.

Motor
1. In the case that the wash motor does not
spin during spin extraction;
1) Check there is motor working
sound,or
2) If there is no motor-working
sound;
Check frequency of the
Ball Pressure Sensor
(Pressure Switch), under no load,
or
Check contact defect of the safety
switch, defect of connection parts
and whether the lid is open if door
error is displayed.
Is placed the magnetic in Lid-B.
Check resistance of the motor.
Drain Motor/Clutch
1. In the case the motor rotates but the
inner tub does not rotates;
1) Check resistance of the drain
motor if the drain motor doesn’t
work,or
2) Check gap between the PV link
and the brake lever if the inner
tub does not rotates while the
drain motor works.
There is motor
working sound.
