Question posted by myohler on April 7th, 2011

Load Sensor

Load Sensor has never worked. There are 4 levels indicated by lighted bars and the most it will ever show is 2 bars, despite intentionally overloading it to get it to register more. LG replaced motherboard and that did not work. They eventually told me that 2 bars is all it would ever do.
