What Makes Samsung Washer Repairs Different
Samsung washers have a Calibration mode that resets weight detection and water-per-cycle settings, recommended after installation or adjustments and as a spin test with an empty drum. Source: Samsung US Support - Washer installation and calibration
Common Samsung Washer Problems
- 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
