What Makes Samsung Washer Repairs Different
Samsung washers require HE detergent, and the company warns that regular, organic or natural detergents can damage the machine. Source: Samsung US Support - Detergent usage
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
Common Samsung Washer Problems

- 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
