Samsung sells top-load agitator, top-load impeller, front-load, and all-in-one combo washers in the U.S., and the repair path differs by type: front loaders add a door lock, door boot and pump filter, while top loaders rely on a lid switch and either an agitator or an impeller.

How Samsung Washers Are Built
The washer will not run until the door is detected as closed and locked, and a latch problem or laundry caught in the door triggers the dC/dE/dS/dL/FL door codes. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
On front loaders the pump (debris) filter sits near the bottom front behind an access panel, and a clogged filter keeps the washer from draining and therefore from spinning. Source: Samsung US Support - How to clean your Samsung washer
