Know Your Samsung Washer
How Samsung Washers Are Built
Samsung top loaders are leveled by checking that the pulsator sits centered under a shallow fill of water, while front loaders are leveled by rocking the cabinet and adjusting the feet. Source: Samsung US Support - Washer installation and calibration
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
Common Samsung Washer Problems
- 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
- Door won't lock. For door codes, Samsung says to make sure the latch is secure, no laundry is caught and the door is fully closed. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
Reading a Samsung Washer Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| tE | Temperature sensor error. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes |
