What Makes Samsung Washer Repairs Different
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
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
Common Samsung Washer Problems
- Off balance, shaking. For UE/Ub unbalance codes, Samsung says to spread the laundry out, close the door and restart, and to follow the won't-spin steps if it keeps happening. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
- 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
