LDF8874ST
LG LDF8874ST Top Control Dishwasher Service

Most common issues on this model
- Hidden control pads and the display behind them
- Door latch and door switch
- Inlet valve fill and tub water level
- Drain pump and filter when dishes sit in water
The LDF8874ST is a top control dishwasher from LG, listed with 15 place settings, six cycles and hidden SmoothTouch Controls under an LED display. LG no longer sells it, but this older model is still in many kitchens, usually built in beside the sink.
The page gives us a short feature list, so we focus on the basics that every unit of this type depends on. First the door has to latch and the control pad has to register, because hidden controls can hide a loose ribbon connection. Then water has to enter at the right level and leave through the filter and pump.
We run a cycle with you present, listen to the pump and spray arms, and look under the tub for dampness. Parts are matched to the model and serial on the door label, and you see the price in writing before we begin.

Error codes this model can show
Does the LDF8874ST have visible buttons?
Its controls are hidden SmoothTouch pads with an LED display, so they sit out of sight on the top edge. If one pad stops answering, we test the panel and the connection behind it.
Why is there water left at the bottom after a cycle?
A blocked filter, a kinked drain hose or a weak pump can leave water in the tub. We check them in that order, since the filter is the easiest to clear.
How long does a visit take?
Most inspections of a dishwasher like this are quick, because we test a cycle and check the latch, the filter and the drain. We explain what we found and the price before any part is ordered.
