As a front-load washer, the WM4200HBA shares its core mechanism with the rest of LG’s washer lineup at roughly 5.0 cu ft. On this platform, the dE fault code is one of the more common reasons it gets a service call. LG’s own US product page still carries this model with an active status flag, read 24 September 2026.
Service calls on this washer most often trace to one of a short list: the dE, FE or tE fault codes. We confirm which one applies against the model and serial number before ordering a part.
