What a Samsung Washer Technician Deals With
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
Common Samsung Washer Problems
- Washer not filling. For the 4C/4E/nF codes, Samsung says to confirm the hot and cold hoses go to the right inlets, are not bent, and that the supply valves are fully open. Source: Samsung US Support - Samsung washing machine information and error codes
- 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
What Samsung Washer Codes Mean
