[LG top load washing machine spin cycle] The spin cycle is completed, but water still remains in the laundry. (Spinning is weak.)

Troubleshooting

Early fully automatic washing machine models spun so strongly that even the rubber bands in socks stretched after 3 or 4 washes, but over the years, with reduced instances of set stains and with many expensive clothes needing to be washed, more recent washing machines have adopted methods of spinning efficiently while not damaging laundry.
In cases of old models, if the belt is stretched, the spinning power may be weakened, but new models have a DD motor with no belt, and if there is a problem in spinning, an LE error is displayed on its own.

If an LE error is not displayed, you can use the product with an easy mind.
When a course such as Fast, Functional Clothes and Hand/Wool is selected, low or delicate spin is selected for fabric protection, so low speed spinning is done.
If the drain hose is clogged or installed too high, water may not be drained smoothly so that spinning may appear weak.
If laundry becomes stuck on one side, the tub cannot spin so that water may remain in the fabric.
It is difficult to drain water from clothing such as gym wear and mountain wear due to their characteristics, so water may remain.

Try this

If you think spinning is weak in Hand/Wool, Sportswear and Fast courses, use other courses such as Normal, Safe, Energy Saving, Pre-wash, etc.

It is difficult to drain water from clothing such as gym wear and mountain wear due to their characteristics.

➔ Even if there is water on their surface, you can dry them as they are because the water inside has drained due to the waterproof material.

If laundry becomes stuck on one side, the tub cannot spin so that water may remain in the fabric.

➔ Spread the laundry evenly and spin-dry again.

If water is not drained properly, water may remain in the tub, lowering the spinning power, so, in turn, water may remain in the laundry.

➔ Check if the drain hose has been installed 6cm higher than the drain hole or if the drain hose is clogged as a result of it being pressed or frozen.
