Samsung Washer Lines and Features
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
The washer will not run until the door is detected as closed and locked, and a latch problem or laundry caught in the door triggers the dC/dE/dS/dL/FL door codes. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Door won't lock. For door codes, Samsung says to make sure the latch is secure, no laundry is caught and the door is fully closed. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
- 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
