— LG USA, LG Front Load Washer - Error Code List(New). Codes vary by model: check your washer’s own manual.
In plain words, SE is about a temperature sensor or its wiring — the control reads a value it does not trust, or a temperature outside its limits.
LG gives 2 other temperature sensor codes for this washer: tE (heating error, usually caused by faulty thermistor), vS (issue with the vibration sensor).
Next to SE in LG’s table: HE (error is a result of a temporary heater) and AE (problem with a leakage inside the appliance).
Safety: If it smells like burning, sparks, or trips the breaker, switch it off at the breaker and leave it off until it is checked.
At least THIS WEEK. fixRAgent treats this code as a this-week repair: the appliance has reported a fault, but the code alone does not point at a safety hazard. This is fixRAgent’s reading, not the manufacturer’s. A photo can raise it — water near wiring, scorch marks, a gas smell — but a code never lowers what the photo shows.
Appliance repair. Have the model and serial numbers from the label ready — a photo of the label works.
Check whether your model is under a safety recall on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s site: cpsc.gov/Recalls. Your owner’s manual is on LG’s support site; search it with the model number from the label.
