Use this guide to replace the rotor in your LG front load washing machine.
The rotor is part of the washer's direct drive motor. It doesn't have any electrical components and is less likely to break compared to the motor stator.
This guide will work for most LG front load washing machines. This guide is written with a model WM3050CW washer. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
