LG Washing Machine CE Error Code
Current Error — motor overcurrent detected. Here's what it means, what you can safely check, and when to call a technician.
LG Washing Machine CE Error: Current Error — motor overcurrent detected
When your LG washing machine shows a CE error, it is indicating: Current Error — motor overcurrent detected. This is a specific fault code the appliance's control board uses to flag a problem it has detected — it won't clear permanently by switching the power off and on, because the underlying condition that caused it still exists.
What To Check Before Calling a Technician
Switch off and unplug. Wait 10 minutes. Check the drum is not overloaded. Restart with a smaller load.
If CE recurs immediately or with a normal load, the motor or motor control board needs a technician. If the CE error persists after the checks above, a technician will be able to diagnose and fix it with the right tools — attempting to open the unit's panels or handle electrical components without training is not safe.
