What Makes Samsung Washer Repairs Different
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 draining. Samsung says to turn the washer off, confirm it is level and the drain hose is installed correctly, then clean the pump filter on front load models. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washer won't drain
- 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
