Use this guide to replace the air dome or air chamber in your LG front load washing machine.
The air dome helps regulate the water level inside the tub. If the dome is cracked, your washer may overflow.
This guide will work for most LG front load washing machines. This guide is written with a model WM3050CW washer. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
