Lg washing machine capacitor problem. LG washing machine, all types of errors

The LG washing machine does not spin out clothes after washing - people often turn to service center technicians with this problem. Why do you have to take wet laundry out of the drum at one fine moment?

This issue needs to be dealt with carefully, because the reasons can be very different from violations of operating rules to serious breakdown. Only after understanding the problem can you create an action plan to eliminate the problem.

Trivial mistakes

What happens to the washing machine when the spin cycle does not work, but the machine performs all other functions (washing, rinsing, draining water). No matter how rude it may sound, the user’s carelessness may be to blame. Here are the common mistakes people make:

Damage to the tachometer or motor

Frequent overloads of the washing machine drum can cause the sensor responsible for engine speed to break. If it breaks, the washing machine stops spinning clothes. This problem happens extremely rarely, but it still shouldn’t be ruled out. It is possible that the problem is not with the sensor, but with oxidized wires coming from the sensor, or with a loose fastening.

Even more rarely, the spin cycle in a washing machine is lost due to a burnt-out electric motor. As a rule, LG cars are equipped with an inverter motor, and it is quite reliable, it is not for nothing that manufacturers give it a 10-year guarantee. Replacing the engine in a modern car can cost a pretty penny. Then you can replace the tachometer yourself.

Problems with the control module

The performance of the control module can be checked in diagnostic mode. This mode is not available in all models of washing machines, but if you have it, try running it. First, plug in the machine and wait until the beep stops. Then press the two buttons “Spin” and “Temp” at the same time.

After starting the diagnostics, press the “Start” button once; as a result, the hatch door will lock. Press the “Start” button again, the machine will go into spin mode. If the machine does not make a single revolution, then there is a problem; to verify this, do the following:

1. provide access to the washing machine motor by removing the rear panel of the housing;
2. take a tester or multimeter and turn on the AC voltage measurement mode;
3. remove the chip with wires from the engine;
4. measure the voltage between the contacts of the wires, if the device shows 140-150 Volts, then the control module is working. If there is no voltage, the module will have to be “reflashed” or replaced.

Important! Only a specialist can more thoroughly check the functionality of the electronic module, so in such a situation it is better to seek help. After all, without knowing the nuances, you can aggravate the problem.

Malfunctions of the LG washing machine will not lead the user into a dead end, because this modern equipment is equipped with a function for self-detection and identification of breakdowns. The LG machine is programmed with special codes, each of which is a signal of a specific defect.

Causes and fault codes for LG washing machines

Malfunctions in the operation of your machine can be due to various reasons:

• I.E.– there is not enough pressure, water is poured slowly and the drum is not completely filled with water, the water does not reach the required level; this happens either due to damage to the fill valve, or due to an error in the operation of the level sensor (pressostat); but the culprit of the breakdown may not be the washing machine, but insufficient pressure in the water pipes; This problem also occurs if your water is simply turned off;
• F.E.– water does not drain within the specified time and accumulates in the drum in excess, which is caused by improper operation of the drain pump or malfunction of the electrical controller;
• O.E.– the code appears on the machine display when the water level in the drum exceeds the permissible level, and, despite the fact that the water has already been drained, some of it remains inside; this defect may be based on the same dysfunctions as in FE; It is also possible that the drain in the washing machine is clogged with something, or blockages have formed in the piping system;
• P.E.- discrepancy between the water level and the required level - either an excessive amount of water or insufficient; due to too strong or weak water pressure in the pipes; A common cause of malfunction is a broken pressure switch, as well as its temporary inoperability associated with a short circuit or network break;
• DE– a door that is not tightly closed or not closed; just try to open the hatch and close it again, it may be that laundry is caught in it; if the malfunction of LG washing machines with such a problem is technical, it means that the electrical controller or the device that blocks the hatch is not working;
• T.E.– if you see this combination of letters on the display, it means that the water is not heated to the required temperature or is at too high a temperature; the source of the problem lies in the incorrect operation of the thermostat that controls the heating element; it is associated with either a short circuit or an open circuit;
• UE– this malfunction of the washing machine is due to the lack of balance in the drum after laying out the clothes in it and during the spin cycle; The operation of the machine is disrupted when there is either not enough or too much laundry in it; if an imbalance is detected already during the washing or rinsing process, the smart device does not generate an error; Another reason for this defect may be improper operation of the electrical controller, damage to the drive;
• E.E.– an error that occurs only in service test mode or during first use;
• S.E.– the object of this malfunction can only be an LG washing machine with direct drive, since this code is directly related to the operation of the Hall sensor, which is available only in such machines; if this sensor is faulty, the engine is blocked and cannot rotate after some time has passed after a signal is sent to it;
• A.E.– appears on the display when the machine automatically turns off for an unknown reason, which is often associated with improper operation;
• C.E.– occurs when too much laundry is loaded into the drum (any washing machine has a limit on the weight of things placed in it), as a result of which the engine is overloaded and “does not pull” that amount of dirty clothes; if you see that there is really a lot of laundry, then the reason is mass, and you should divide it into “portions”; if the mass is small, then the problem is a malfunction of the electrical controller or even a breakdown of the engine; in an LG direct drive machine, this error often occurs due to drum vibration, which also indicates a technical breakdown;
• E1 – occurs when water fills the pan and notifies of a leak; often happens due to depressurization of the tank or its breakdown; the cause may be incompleteness of hoses and other parts or incorrect functioning of the leak sensor;
• HE– breakdown of the electric heating element or its power circuits;
• E3 – the equipment cannot determine the load;
• L.E.– an error in the operation of the device blocking the hatch; the device is malfunctioning due to its own failure or due to the fact that the voltage of the electrical network is not high enough; the electric motor or electric controller may be broken;
• C.L. – this combination is not an error code, but it can also be displayed; This is child protection, and it is disabled by a certain key combination, which depends on the model and must be specified in the operating instructions.

Repair and troubleshooting

Removing a washing machine from defects and operational errors depends on the part of the washing machine in which the breakdown occurred and the cause of this breakdown. Possible malfunctions of the washing machine can be eliminated in the following ways:

• if the cause of the defect lies in a direct technical breakdown of any part of the washing machine, this part simply needs to be replaced;
• if the reason is the weight of the laundry, you need to increase or decrease it;

• if the machine parts are in good working order, but do not work correctly or do not work at all, find the external reason for this and get rid of it (inappropriate water pressure in the plumbing systems, lack of electricity, short circuits and breaks, blockages in the pipes, faulty wiring);
• if you turn on the equipment and the water does not start pouring, check whether the hatch is closed; if it is closed and water still does not begin to flow into the drum, it means that some part is damaged or does not work due to other circumstances and needs to be replaced;
• if water does not stop accumulating, it means that the water inlet valve needs to be replaced or the operation of the pressure switch needs to be adjusted;
• if the water does not drain, then you need to replace the drain pump or clean its filter from objects stuck there, remove blockages in the drain hose;
• if the water does not heat up, then you need to perform a service test to check the electric heater, identify the cause and either eliminate the power supply break or replace the level sensor or control module;
• if the machine is turned on, but the washing does not start due to a malfunction of the motor and drum, which can be determined using a service test, then it is necessary to install another, working motor or control module in the machine, or replace the wires;
• if after finishing the washing process in the LG machine the hatch does not open, then you need to replace the control module or the door blocking device;

• if you cannot independently determine the reason why the equipment refuses to work, call a specialist, as in the case if you need the help of a professional.

LG direct drive washing machines are in demand among buyers. The new design has made it possible to significantly increase the service life of the engine, while the SM belongs to an affordable price segment.

But even such equipment is subject to breakdowns, and servicing LG washing machines at a service center is sometimes expensive. Therefore, we will tell you about typical malfunctions of this brand and the possibilities of self-repair.

According to statistics, breakdowns of LG direct drive washing machines occur after five years of operation. To understand where to start troubleshooting, let’s look at how a direct-drive SM and a standard machine work.

Look at the diagram of the LG washing machine:

In the first case, the drum is rotated using a drive belt. In the second, the drum rotates the motor directly. This motor also does not have brushes, which constantly wear out. If there is a breakdown, you will immediately determine that the cause is in the motor, and not in the parts adjacent to it.

We have analyzed the principle of operation, now we will look at which nodes most often fail:

Fault codes for the ElG washing machine

How can the user understand where exactly the LG washing machine broke down? There is a self-diagnosis system for this. If a problem is detected, the system displays ELG error codes on the display.

All you have to do is decipher the code and find the problem.

Now you know the meaning of errors and you can start repairing the automatic machine yourself. Let's look at typical malfunctions that can happen during operation of an LG washing machine.

For what reasons may the washing machine not turn on, how to troubleshoot a washing machine?

Now you know how you can repair an LG washing machine with your own hands if the wiring breaks down.

You turned on the SMA, water was drawn in, but the washing still does not start. What is the reason?

1. The heater (heating element) is faulty. The water does not heat up, so the wash does not start. If you need to wash your clothes urgently, try choosing a low-heat wash cycle. This video will help you replace the element:

1. Failure of the pressure switch or thermistor. A faulty pressure switch does not signal that the optimal water level in the tank has been reached. If the thermistor fails, the module does not receive a message about the heating temperature. Elements need to be replaced.
2. The main module of the LG washing machine, which gives the machine components the command to start working, has failed.
3. LG direct drive washing machine motor malfunction.

Knock and rumble while the LG washing machine is running

If you hear loud knocking, grinding, or rattling noises when the drum rotates, the reason may be that there is not enough laundry. Just put more stuff in the drum.

A more serious breakdown is considered to be wear of bearings and seals. To replace them, you will have to completely disassemble the washing machine and repair the drum. This video will help you replace the bearings:

1. Incorrect mode selection.
2. There is a blockage in the drain system (filter, pipe, pump).

How to fix problems with a Lji washing machine with your own hands? You need to check the drain pump. For this:

A similar malfunction can occur if the water is not completely drained from the tank. To open it, you need to manually remove any remaining water through the drain filter.

Perhaps the program is not finished yet and the drum is rotating, so the hatch does not open. Wait until the cycle ends.

A malfunction can be called a broken door lock - UBL. LG washing machine door repair can be done at home.

To repair an LG washing machine with your own hands, you need to have a good knowledge of the design features of the washing machine and its main faults that occur most often.

Basic malfunctions of LG washing machines

From time to time, many people experience a situation where the washing machine stops working normally. Modern units, including LG, have no problems with diagnostics and error detection. The fact is that the screen display displays codes, each of which corresponds to a particular malfunction. LG washing machines have their own coding, deciphered in the attached technical documentation. Practical advice on how to eliminate any breakdowns that may occur is also given here.

Decoding the main fault codes of the LG washing machine:

• FE - means it is impossible to drain waste water within the specified time. This problem occurs due to a failure of the electrical controller, as well as as a result of a malfunction or incorrect operation of the drain pump.
• IE - most often this error appears when the level sensor is damaged. Because of this, the water level in the tank is determined incorrectly, and the machine does not receive enough liquid. Sometimes the cause may be a non-working fill valve or low water pressure in the pipes. If there is a complete lack of water supply, in addition to the code, a sound signal is given.
• OE is an error code that is absolutely opposite to the previous case. Here, on the contrary, excess water appears due to a faulty pump or electrical controller.
• RE - this error indicates a deviation from the norm, upward or downward, in the amount of water entering the machine. The cause may be a faulty pressure switch, or the cause may be too much or too little water pressure in the pipes. Sometimes an LG washing machine collects excess water as a result of a short circuit in the electrical network.
• DE - appears when the sunroof sensor indicates that the door is not closed enough. Full closure is often prevented by the laundry inside the drum. Sometimes the error is caused by a faulty sensor.
• TE - error code, also indicating problems with the sensors. In these cases, the washing machine does not heat the water to the required temperature or overheats it. Sometimes the water does not heat up at all, which indicates a faulty heating element.
• SE - this error is associated with a non-working electric motor and appears only on washing machines with direct drive. If only the sensor is faulty, the engine will still remain locked until the faulty element is replaced.
• EE - this code appears during service tests when the LG washing machine is turned on for the first time.
• CE - indicates tank overload. The weight of the laundry is controlled by a special fuse and if the norm is exceeded, the rotation of the drum is blocked at the command of the sensor. The problem is solved by removing excess laundry from the washing machine.
• AE - indicates improper use of the washing machine, accompanied by frequent automatic shutdowns.
• E1 - this code appears when a leak is detected.
• CL is a lock code that protects the LG washing machine from children pressing the buttons. The lock can be removed using a specific key combination specified in the instruction manual.

Many problems that arise with LG washing machines can be solved independently, in accordance with the decoding of the codes displayed on the display. If the measures taken do not lead to a positive result, it is recommended to perform service testing for a more complete diagnosis. Thanks to the information received, you can repair the washing machine yourself. Sometimes breakdowns occur that are not covered by error codes. They also need to be able to identify and eliminate them.

Washing machine won't turn on

Sometimes the washing machine does not react in any way when the plug is plugged into the socket: the indicator lights do not light up, and the musical greeting does not turn on. The reasons for this condition can be very different. Some can be easily fixed on your own, while others can only be fixed in a service center.

Why the washing machine does not turn on:

• Lack of electricity is the most common reason. For various reasons, a machine or RCD is triggered. The socket may be faulty.
• The network cable is faulty. The washing machine power cord is working properly. If a problem is detected, the cord is completely replaced or repaired. All connections must be made only by soldering.
• There is a malfunction of the power button, which receives power after connecting to the network. To check its performance, a tester set to buzzer mode is also used. The automatic machine must be de-energized, and the button itself rings in both positions - on and off. If it is in working order, the multimeter will confirm this with a characteristic sound. If a malfunction is detected, the button must be replaced.

Sometimes the LG washing machine does not turn on due to a malfunction of the interference filter (IFI). This device is designed to dampen electromagnetic waves emitted by the washing machine and interfere with the operation of other devices. When the FPS fails, it no longer passes electric current through the circuit, as a result, the washing machine does not turn on. Serviceability checks are carried out using a multimeter. It is necessary to ring the entry and exit in turn. If there is voltage at the input but not at the output, then the FPS is faulty and requires replacement.

The drum does not spin, what should I do?

Sometimes the drum in an LG washing machine stops spinning. In this case, you should turn off the machine, drain the water, open the door and try to turn the drum manually. If the drum does not rotate, it means it is jammed. This situation can arise for various reasons. For example, LG top-loading washing machines may have doors that open and become caught on the heating element or other part.

Sometimes the drive belt slips off and has to be replaced along with the bearing. The bearings themselves fail due to wear of the seal, which allows air and water to pass through due to loss of elasticity. A foreign object may get caught between the tub and the drum, preventing rotation.

When the drum is rotated by hand, but it does not rotate from the electric motor. The most likely reason is related to defects in the control modules. It is possible to solve the problem by resetting the program, but in more complex cases, the board needs to be repaired or completely replaced.

Another reason may be failure of the drive belt due to breaks or weakening. Sometimes the brushes of the electric motor fail, and the motor itself becomes faulty due to water leaks or voltage surges. More precise reasons for the failure of drum rotation are established only after disassembling the washing machine and diagnostics.

Extraneous sounds during washing

After a certain time of operation, extraneous noise may appear in the LG washing machine, as well as uncharacteristic sounds in the form of creaking, crackling, and others. The main causes of extraneous sounds may be the following:

• Vibration accompanied by a hum indicates worn bearings. Their condition, in turn, is affected by the wear of the tank seal, which ensures the tightness of the shaft. Water gradually seeps through the seal, gets onto the bearings and causes them to corrode. In such cases, it is necessary to immediately replace the bearing and seal.
• The appearance of whistling and crackling sounds indicates a weak pulley attachment to the drum. The loosened bolt or nut is unscrewed and reinstalled with sealants to prevent further loosening. If the pulley is deformed, it must be replaced.
• Noise and squeaking during operation most often occurs due to objects getting between the drum and the washing tub. Foreign objects are removed through the hatch for the heating element, which is previously removed.
• If your LG washing machine makes a rattling or rattling noise, there is a high chance that the shock absorber or spring that holds the tub in place has failed. The shock absorber mounts may be broken or the mounting bolt may be loose. A characteristic sign is the displacement or tilt of the drum, due to which it begins to make knocking noises during washing, touching the internal surfaces. The only solution is to disassemble the machine and replace broken parts.
• When the washing machine jumps or jumps, it is quite possible that this is due to a problem with the tank counterweight, which may be loose or destroyed. Each fastening point must be examined, all weak points must be tightened. A damaged counterweight must be replaced.

Water enters the tank very slowly

Quite often, situations arise when, despite observing all the required standards regarding the amount of laundry, washing powder and settings, water is still drawn into the tank too slowly or not at all.

In such situations, first of all, the presence of water in the system and its pressure, the position and serviceability of the water supply valve to the machine, as well as the condition of the water hose are checked. If everything is in order here, the washing machine needs to be emptied of laundry, turned off the power and diagnostics carried out to identify faults.

The main reasons for slow water supply:

• Inlet valve filter clogged. It is a small mesh placed behind the inlet hose screwed to the water supply valve. The water is first turned off and the inlet hose is unscrewed, after which the filter is removed, cleaned with a brush and washed. The hose is also cleared of debris and washed, then the parts are put back in place in the reverse order.
• The additional filter is clogged. Such elements can be main ones, protecting against sand, rust and other impurities, as well as magnetic and polyphosphate to soften water. They are installed before the inlet hose and require better cleaning under strong water pressure.
• The door does not close well, the hatch locking device is faulty. The sensor blocks the water supply when the door is open. The malfunction is eliminated by dismantling the door and installing the locking rod in its place. If the thermal blocking fails, it must be replaced.
• The water supply valve is not working. The valve is installed on the rear panel and the inlet hose is screwed to it. Water supply and shut-off is carried out by an electronic signal. The valve stops working due to a malfunction of the coil, weakening of the rod spring, or loss of flexibility of the cuff. In all these cases, the valve must be replaced.
• Control module malfunction. In this case, the command to draw water simply will not be received. The problem is solved by flashing or replacing the control module.

Water does not drain from the tank

First of all, check that the washing mode is set correctly. Some LG models have a no-drain option that may have been accidentally enabled. Next, the drain hose is inspected for kinks and blockages. If necessary, it should be cleaned, and at the same time check the siphon if water drains through it.

The reason for the water not draining may be a filter that is dirty and clogged with various objects. Drainage becomes significantly more difficult or stops altogether. A clogged filter often leads to more serious damage to the unit, so it must be inspected and cleaned regularly. In addition, some small items of clothing may get stuck in the pipe, creating obstacles for water to escape.

The reason for the drainage failure is often a faulty pump, the sound of which becomes quieter compared to normal mode. The machine makes noise or hums, but the water does not drain. The malfunction occurs due to physical wear and tear of the pump, designed for 3-5 years of operation. Small objects leaking from the filter can jam the impeller.

Sometimes all systems work normally, but the water still does not drain. The main reason is a clogged drain hose, which must be removed and cleaned. The second reason is related to the pump, which has exhausted its service life and can only rotate dry without water. When water is supplied, it jams, power is lost, and it stops rotating.

To avoid such situations, experts recommend taking a number of preventive measures:

• Before washing, you need to remove all foreign objects from your pockets.
• The weight of laundry loaded into the drum must strictly comply with the instructions; overloading is strictly prohibited.
• Use only high-quality detergents in the right quantities for washing.
• It is recommended to use during washing. This will help preserve the equipment during surges and drops in mains voltage.

Water leaks

Water leaks in LG washing machines are among the most serious problems when the most emergency measures need to be taken. Flowing water can not only flood neighbors on the lower floor, but also damage the electronic parts of the unit. Therefore, if a leak is detected, washing should be stopped immediately and the water drained. The water supply to the machine is completely shut off.

The main reasons for water leakage in LG washing machines:

• A leak that occurs near the filter indicates that it is not tightened properly after cleaning, or that the O-ring or thread is damaged.
• Water appears mainly in the front of the machine and often pours out through the doors. This becomes especially noticeable during the spinning process. The cause of the malfunction may be a loose door or a damaged hatch seal.
• If a leak occurs while draining the water, the leaking drain hoses must be replaced.
• A leak can occur due to a rupture of the internal pipe, depressurization of connections, or a defect in the water pump. In these cases, water appears centrally under the washing machine or towards the front of the washing machine. If a leak is detected near the rear wall, failure of the bearing or seal is quite likely.
• When the water supply starts to leak, the problem may be that the powder tray is clogged with detergent residue. It is possible that the inlet hoses and water supply holes are also clogged.

Control module malfunctions

One of the most complex parts of an LG washing machine is definitely the control module. If the control panel fails, it stops all functions of the washing machine. After all, this unit turns the device on and off, organizes the direct washing process, selects a mode, provides rinsing and spinning, and at its command the water is heated and cooled.

Before you repair the control module yourself, you need to diagnose it. If there are obvious problems, the machine does not spin the laundry normally, and the error code does not appear on the display. The lights located on the control panel do not light up at the same time or at all. Water does not fill into the tank even if the desired mode is set. The wash itself lasts for 3-4 hours in a row without stopping or switching to other modes. The device constantly freezes, and difficulties arise with installing the necessary programs.

These and other signs gradually cause the washing machine to become completely inoperable. If at least one of them is present, the question of urgent repair of the control module must be raised. It is recommended that repairs be carried out independently only by those people who have knowledge and experience working with. In case of incorrect actions, the module will completely fail, and along with it some components of the washing machine.

If you decide to do the repair yourself, you must follow a certain procedure:

• The module is cleaned of sealant.
• It is then carefully removed from the compartment in the direction away from the transformer.
• After removal, the remaining sealant is removed from the electronic module.
• Next, repair work is carried out.
• After repair, protective varnish is applied to areas of the board.

In some cases, the module is not completely removed; only the necessary area is cleared of sealant, which is then repaired.

If your LG washing machine simply stops turning on, you need to quickly take action to eliminate the cause of the problem. This problem is relevant for many owners of cars that are not in their first year, but this does not mean that you need to buy a new one; it is quite possible that a little DIY repair or help from an LG service center specialist will help.

First of all, we will consider the possible causes of such a malfunction, and then options for eliminating them.

Washing machineLG does not turn on: reasons

• This may seem trivial, but often the reason that the lg washing machine does not turn on is that the socket is faulty or there is no electricity flowing into it.
• Similar to the previous reason, a malfunction of the power cord or plug is also a common case that owners encounter.
• It is also possible that the device button, the one responsible for powering the machine, may break down.
• The control panel of the lg washing machine is a rather complex microcircuit; if certain of its parts burn out, or some contacts are severely worn out, the power button will also not work.
• The interference filter, or rather its malfunction, will also mean that the machine will stop turning on.

Let's look at these reasons in more detail, as well as how they can be identified and what can be done to correct the situation.

Washing machineLG does not turn on: mains

If, after connecting the washing machine to the network, it does not turn on and not even one indicator lights up, you should check the circuit breaker through which the socket for this equipment is routed. Usually, a separate power source is provided for such equipment, so in the event of an overvoltage in the network, the “machine” could simply turn off. To solve this problem, simply turn it back on.

Also, the reason may be in the socket itself, the contacts could have melted or they were broken; by removing the cover you can see what exactly happened. Just before you start disassembling your outlet, try connecting some other equipment to it; if everything works, then this is not necessary. But that’s not all, the wiring may be broken somewhere in the wall, this possibility cannot be ruled out either, it’s difficult to identify, just plug the machine into a different outlet and run an extension cord if necessary.

Washing machineLG, power does not turn on: device cord

Mechanical damage can damage the power cord of the washing machine; as a result, it will not turn on after this. Make sure that the cord is always free from other furniture; if, for example, you place a kitchen cabinet on it, such a nuisance may occur. Overvoltage in the network can affect the integrity of the plug contacts, then electricity simply will not flow to the machine, however, new models of LG equipment are protected from such incidents.

It is impossible to disassemble and repair such a “plug”; you will have to replace the cord completely.

Power button failure

If the power button is burned out, your lg washing machine will not turn on either. To establish the integrity of this component you will need a standard multimeter, set it to ring and test the button in both modes, “ON” and “OFF”, if everything is in order, you will hear the characteristic signal of the multimeter.

A broken button will have to be replaced; in fact, the process is not complicated; basic technician skills are required, such as handling a soldering iron, for example.

Control panel chip

The control module of the Elgie washing machine consists of a complex microcircuit that receives user signals and transmits them to all operating systems, while controlling all processes. Naturally, it is the control module that is responsible for turning the device on. Failure of one of the components of the microcircuit and its spare parts will lead to serious repairs, which you most likely will not be able to handle on your own. Often this module cannot be repaired at all and will have to be replaced; in any case, problems with it require calling an LG service center technician.

FPS noise filter

The LG washing machine also does not turn on due to a breakdown of the interference filter. The FPS can also burn out due to voltage surges; in addition, its service life is not infinite and long-term use will lead to failure. You can replace the FPS yourself using a soldering iron. The noise filter is sold complete with a power cord, although if you contact a workshop for the part, you can purchase it separately.
