Washer triggers LE (Locked Rotor) error and halts — the control board cannot receive valid speed/direction signals from a failed Hall sensor, causing it to cut power to the motor.
Drum fills and drains normally but refuses to spin up; the motor receives power yet the control cannot commutate it correctly without rotor position feedback.
Washer starts the cycle but the drum does not tumble or agitate; a faulty sensor prevents the control board from coordinating the motor's clockwise/counterclockwise motion.
Drum rotates in one direction (CW or CCW) but stalls or makes loud grinding/humming noise when reversing — classic symptom of a Hall sensor with one or more dead sensing elements.
Washer repeatedly pauses mid-cycle, restarts, and then stops again; intermittent sensor signal causes the control board to cut motor power as a protective response.
💡 Pro Tip: Diagnosing a Faulty Rotor Position Sensor
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Washer displays LE (Locked Rotor) error code and stops mid-cycle
⚠️ Drum pumps water but will not spin or agitate
⚠️ Washer starts then stalls after a few minutes with a loud humming or scratching noise
⚠️ EO error displayed, or drum spins only in one direction (CW or CCW)
🔍 To confirm: unplug the washer the moment the LE code appears. Wait 30 seconds, reconnect, and run a spin-only cycle. If the error returns immediately, the rotor position sensor is the most likely cause. Also inspect the sensor connector for corrosion or bent pins before replacing.
