What a Samsung Washer Technician Deals With
Samsung washers require HE detergent, and the company warns that regular, organic or natural detergents can damage the machine. Source: Samsung US Support - Detergent usage
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
Samsung Washer Symptoms and First Checks
- Washer leaking. Samsung says to check the water supply hoses, their connections and o-rings first, then look for hair or debris in the door gasket and make sure the door closes fully. Source: Samsung US Support - Fix a leak in your Samsung washer
- Washer odor. Samsung says a sewage smell can mean the drain hose is pushed too far into the drain, while a mildew smell calls for an empty spin to clear standing water before cleaning the washer. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine or laundry smells bad
