3. Today, I tested with the tub empty, on Tub Clean cycle. Still got LE!

It did spin around for a rotation or two at the very beginning, but then only wiggled thereafter as if trying to "sense the load." It eventually gave the LE error. I don't know if the water itself presented "too much" load? This jives with a sensor problem, doesn't it?

Also: A sensor problem requires fix by a service technician? Or could that be a part I can replace?
