Drum wont spin and stops with le error. The drum sometimes spins but makes a growling sound other times it locks in place and i cnat even move it manually. With the power off the drum spins freely with no noise. The ressistance of the stator windings in a consistant 8.3 ohms across all windings. The hall sensor has 12 volts on it and pulses at 10v dc as you spin the drum. The voltage on the motor varies from phase to pahse on the same spin speed r-b is 35vdc b-y 125vdc and between y-r 0vdc. I suspect a faulty control board just looking for more confirmation before i go out buying parts. Thanks Aaron

This is actually a Very Common Error on LG. I would not Advise you to Buy a Control Board. Usually the problem is with Hall Sensor.Replace the sensor first. Unfortunately you can't test the sensor so you will just have to replace it and see if it fixes the problem. This sensor is actually clipped onto the stator motor itself in the back of the machine.

I am sure it would work. 99.9% Problems i have seen with this Error is Hall Sensor.
