Washer/dryer combo washes normally but clothes remain damp or wet after a full dry cycle — failed DC fan motor stops condenser airflow.
Grinding, humming, or rattling noise during the drying phase caused by worn motor bearings or a seized fan motor assembly.
Control board displays a motor-related fault code (LE, tE, or similar) due to the DC fan motor drawing abnormal current or failing to reach target RPM.
Without proper fan circulation, the condensing system cannot remove moisture from the drum, resulting in extremely long or failed dry cycles.




💡 Pro Tip: Is Your DC Fan Motor Failing?
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Clothes come out damp or wet after a full dry cycle — condenser fan not circulating air
⚠️ Unusually loud humming, grinding, or rattling noise during the drying phase
⚠️ Machine displays an error code related to the fan motor (e.g., dE, tE, or LE codes on LG combos)
⚠️ Unit washes normally but drying performance is severely reduced or absent
🔍 Diagnostic Tip: Disconnect power and manually spin the fan blade. If it feels stiff, gritty, or won't spin freely, the motor bearings are worn and replacement is necessary. Always verify 26V DC supply to the motor connector before condemning the part — a faulty main control board can mimic a failed fan motor.
