What a Samsung Washer Technician Deals With

What Samsung Says to Check First
- Washer won't start. Samsung says to confirm the washer is plugged into a grounded outlet on its own dedicated circuit without a surge protector, check the cord and look for a tripped breaker. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washer power issues
- Washer not filling. For the 4C/4E/nF codes, Samsung says to confirm the hot and cold hoses go to the right inlets, are not bent, and that the supply valves are fully open. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
