Know Your Samsung Washer
How Samsung Washers Are Built
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 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
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Washer not spinning. Samsung says to clean the pump filter on front loaders, check that the drain hose sits at the right depth and height without kinks, and then run Calibration mode with an empty drum. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washer won't spin
- 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
What Samsung Washer Codes Mean
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| UE / Ub | The load is unbalanced; redistribute it and restart. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes |
| Sud / Sd | Too many suds; the washer pauses to let them settle, and Samsung says this alone does not mean service is needed. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes |
| 4C2 / 4E2 | Hot water is coming in on the cold side, usually because the inlet hoses are swapped. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes |
