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
What Samsung Says to Check First
- 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 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
