What IE, E02, E10 means

IE, E02 and E10 mean the tub did not fill to the required level in the set time. This applies to LG front-load washers with an alphanumeric display and to LG top-load washers with an alphanumeric display. Causes include no water, a closed tap, a kinked hose, a frozen hose or tap, or a water supply valve that is not working. The owner sees the code and the washer stops waiting for water.

Common causes of IE, E02, E10

Supply tap closed or hose kinked
Frozen hose or tap
Clogged inlet filter
Water supply valve not opening

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Make sure both taps are open and the hoses are connected. 2. Straighten any kinked inlet hose. 3. Thaw a frozen hose or tap with warm water below 50 C. 4. Clean the inlet filter. 5. On a WashTower, confirm the drain hose holder is in place and the hose end is not submerged.

! Why to stop there

If water reaches the washer freely and the code stays, the supply valve and level sensing are what remain.
We check the valve, the filters and the fill path, and quote in writing before work.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

IE, E02, E10IE, E02, E10 questions

Why would the drain hose matter for IE?

On a WashTower, a removed hose holder or a submerged hose end can siphon water out as it fills. That can look like a fill problem. Water reaches the tub through those hoses first, so a bent hose or half-open tap is the simplest cause.

Which hose do I check first?

Start with the inlet hoses at the taps. Make sure the taps are fully open and the hoses are not bent. The washer has to take on its required level in a set time, and a slow fill can miss that mark.

Do the three codes differ?

IE, E02 and E10 share one meaning here. The characters depend on the model, so match what your display shows. Your display shows one of them, and the cause is the same slow or missing fill whichever you see.
