LG washing machine turns one way when washing

Regards! I have an LG top-loading washing machine (I don't remember the model, it is one of those turbodrum with double gear transmission) that was recently replaced with a transmission box, the point is that at the time of washing, she in a sense It turns perfect, but when you try to turn in the opposite direction as it slows and turns the tub. I don't think it's the transmission as such since it is turned off, turning the transmission shaft turns it easily and in both directions. I have noticed when the washing machine is going to enter the wash cycle, the drain motor retracts and pushes the brake arm up, which is what I suspect may be causing the wash to turn, when turning the tub the other way, because it is as if it were to be centrifuged (the centrifuge works perfect). It seems to me that I have read in another topic of this forum that the transmission, on the brake arm, has like a set screw. Is that what needs to be adjusted? Because it is that, when entering the wash cycle, the brake arm is released as if it were to be centrifuged, which as I understand what I could read, should not be released at all. I don't know if I explained myself well, whatever guidance you can give me, I thank you. Thanks in advance.

And without the band or belt if you turn the engine in both directions? If it does, then it is what you comment, I leave this Link to make the corresponding measurements: http://electroreparacioneslmc.blogspot.com/2018/01/como-mediciones-un-drain-motor-de.html luck and greetings

Yes, the motor rotates in both directions. Today I will try to adjust the washing machine to see if it is solved, I have seen a video of how to put the washing machine in test mode to test the drain motor well and make adjustments to the brake arm screw.

Happy New Year 2019. Greetings lusangor. Greetings androidpc. In addition to the information already received, the transmission boxes are factory graduated in terms of the adjustable screw to which you mention. Proof of this is the paint that is placed to ensure that they have not modified it from its place. However. To understand the adjustable screw, it at its lower end maintains a separation distance of a couple of millimeters from the smooth surface of the brake arm when the washer is either turned off or paused. If that end of the screw is touching the smooth surface of the brake arm in these conditions, that is wrong and that distance must be corrected by loosening the locknut and unscrewing the adjustable screw to the indicated clearance. But, if the separation between both surfaces is approximately two to three millimeters, then the fault is not related to that adjustable screw. When the wash or rinse stage takes a turn, the drain motor retracts the guide arm up to 50% of its travel to force the brake arm to subtly touch the end of the adjustable screw so that the brake band micrometrically moves away of the transmission case housing that acts as a third axis or arrow and that relates to the spin drum. That distance or separation is so minimal that it only allows the spin drum to be free to make short displacements in both directions no more than about 15 cm (clockwise as a reference) due to the presence of the double gear, thanks to the impeller or horizontal agitator which, when injecting water into the columns of the spin drum, forces said drum to rotate in the opposite direction to the impeller to create the kickback effect patented by LG. In other words, the two teeth of the clutch arm should prevent both gears from moving in those two stages mentioned above . If the two teeth move away from the two gears and thus the two gears manage to move, the action of the spring of two guides comes into play, forcing the spin drum to rotate as if the stage of the selected spin was. In the wash and rinse stages, the two-guide spring must be kept away from both the steel cylinder that goes on the inner shaft or lower arrow in the transmission case, as well as the final part of the case housing. transmission. And it will only contract by clinging to the two aforementioned surfaces when the intermediate spin and final spin stages take turns. Without water, the spin drum should not move either in the wash stages or in the rinse stages. If it does, the spring is doing a job it shouldn't do at those times and all because the gears are moving when they should not, thanks to the poorly calibrated drain engine when installed. When the spinning stages take turns, the brake arm is pulled by the drain motor to force the adjustable screw to move from its place and thereby move the clutch arm away so that the teeth of the clutch arm are separated from the periphery of both gears between a minimum of 2 mm and up to about 5 mm or something else. In this way, the brake band is completely separated from the housing of the transmission case a distance of 1.5 mm to 2.0 mm maximum. Enough distance for the spin drum to rotate completely free of the main motor rprm with the pulleys present. So, check the coupling system of the drain motor at the end of the brake arm. It is very likely that when installed, the end of the brake arm was on the wrong side inside the plastic that wraps it, or that its guide arm was slightly retracted when it should be 100% out of the drain motor. Thanks and regards.

Thank you! I have not yet had a chance to check the washing machine, I can barely verify the drain motor, as well as the separation of the screw you mention. Anything I will be publishing.

Regards! I could solve the problem, it was a matter of adjusting the brake arm screw because it did not have the separation you indicated, it was completely attached to the arm. Adjusting the screw so that there was a separation of a couple of millimeters was enough.
