WM3470CM
LG WM3470CM 5.0 cu. ft. Mega Capacity Washer Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Balance and leveling with a full 5.0 cu. ft. drum
- Direct Drive motor and bearings
- Drain pump and filter
- Door seal, boot and ColdWash dispenser flow
The WM3470CM is an LG Mega Capacity front-load washer with a 5.0 cu. ft. drum. It uses 6Motion technology, ColdWash technology and a Direct Drive motor with a 10-year limited warranty, and it is ENERGY STAR certified. The WM3470CW is a variant.
A drum this large is typically installed in a laundry room, often on a pedestal. Heavy loads put stress on balance, the suspension and the door seal, so we check leveling first, then the drain pump and filter, and finally the motor and bearings if spin is noisy.
For ColdWash cycles that leave detergent behind, we check the dispenser and the inlet. We confirm the model and serial from the label before ordering any part, since the CM and CW variants share the number. You receive a written price before work, and a 30-day workmanship warranty covers the repair.

What is the WM3470CW?
It is a variant of the WM3470CM sharing the same 5.0 cu. ft. Mega Capacity design. We read the label to see which one you have before we order parts, and we quote the price in writing.
Why does a Mega Capacity washer shake?
A 5.0 cu. ft. drum is heavy when full. We check the feet and the leveling, the load balance and the suspension. If it sits on a pedestal, we check that fit too.
Does ColdWash affect rinsing?
It can, because cold water needs a clean dispenser and good inlet flow to carry detergent away. If detergent remains on clothes, we start with those two, then the drain and the door seal.
