LG WT7300CW Repair Guide
LG’s large-capacity top-loader with the same direct-drive inverter motor as its front-load siblings. No belt, no clutch, no actuator — so its trouble spots differ from the Whirlpool-style top-loaders: think suspension, rotor position sensing, and drainage.
Common problems & typical repair costs

Tech notes
If it shakes violently with every mixed load after a few years, price the suspension rod kit before assuming worse — it’s the signature wear item on large LG top-loaders.
