LG F1247TD washing machine Drum wont turn

by / Friday, 05 May 2017 / Published in

I have replaced the ​haul sensor on my washing machine after watching one of the videos​, but the motor will still not turn. the drum is very stiff and when the machine fills with water it tries to turn but stops, after having a conversation with you on the phone, I have had great trouble removing the element but after finding out that there was an additional nut holding the earth wire on the element. I eventually managed to get it out and lo and behold found this sock wrapped around it

I will try and help with this problem with your LG F1247TD washing machine

Most of the time with Lg washing machine direct drive​ systems when they do not turn it is normally a fault with the motor or the haul sensor but you normally get a rocking action on the motor, ​but in your case, the drum has seized​ and stopped the machine from turning. I have put some videos below to help you clear of any blockages in the drum and the sump hose if you ever need us again I have listed parts for this washing machine below and a couple of useful videos on this model of machine.

Here is a video on haul sensor replacement done by a company in the USA the haul sensor is called a Rotor Position Sensor Switch in the USA

If you need any further assistance please feel free to contact me​. all the best Paul​.

    Thanks Paul. I am going to recommend your YouTube channel on my veterans groups. Hope that helps? ☺

    I am not the most patient person I know. Work in progress…
    I had to use the claw on the claw hammer to prise the element out in the end ( I was careful). It is working completely now.
