01
One appliance, dozens of parts
An automatic washer is an integrated system of mechanical, electrical and electronic parts working together in every cycle.

03
Diagnosing the fault
Most faults trace back to a specific part: 5E usually points to the drain path and pump, 4E to water supply, UE to balance and suspension. A correct diagnosis avoids replacing parts unnecessarily.

If an error code appears or the washer stops, send us the model and code on WhatsApp — or book a technician visit directly.
Error codes
What does the code on your washer mean?
Type the code shown on your Samsung washer to see its general meaning, likely causes and what you can safely check before calling a technician.
Some codes vary by model and production year, so treat this as a first guide. Sub-codes (such as 4E1 or dE2) identify the fault more precisely.
Water supply problem
Related codes: 4C · 4E1 · 4E2 · 4C2
The washer did not receive the expected amount of water within the set time, so it stopped to protect itself.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Tap closed or low water pressure
- Clogged mesh filter at the inlet hose connection
- Kinked or crushed inlet hose behind the machine
- Weak or failed water inlet valve
Safe checks you can do
- Make sure the tap is fully open and the house has water
- Unplug the washer, close the tap, then check the inlet hose for kinks
- Run a short programme after reopening the tap
On some models, sub-codes such as 4C2 indicate that incoming water is too hot or that hot/cold hoses are connected the wrong way round.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideDrain problem
Related codes: 5C · nd
The washer could not drain the water within the expected time, so it cannot move on to rinse or spin.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Drain pump filter blocked by lint, coins or small objects
- Kinked or blocked drain hose, or a blocked household drain
- Failed drain pump
- Drain hose installed at an unsuitable height
Safe checks you can do
- Unplug the washer and let the water cool before opening the lower filter cover
- Place a tray and towel under the filter — residual water will come out — then clean the filter
- Check the drain hose is not kinked and the drain is not backing up
On some older top-load models, the code nd has a similar meaning.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideUnbalanced load
Related codes: Ub · UB · dC
The washer cannot distribute the laundry evenly, so it reduces or skips the spin to protect itself.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Very small load or a single heavy item such as a blanket or rug
- Uneven floor or unadjusted feet
- Transit bolts still fitted on a new washer
- Worn shock absorbers or suspension springs
Safe checks you can do
- Redistribute the laundry by hand and run a spin cycle
- Add a few items if the load is one heavy piece
- Make sure the washer stands level and its feet are firm
On some top-load models, dC may appear for an unbalanced load or when the lid is opened during spin.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideDoor or door-lock problem
Related codes: dC · DE1 · DE2 · dE1 · dE2 · dC1 · dC3
The washer does not detect that the door is properly closed and locked, so it won’t start or stops the cycle.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Door not fully closed or clothes trapped in the seal
- Damaged door hook or hinges
- Faulty door-lock assembly
- Wiring or control-board issue
Safe checks you can do
- Open the door, clear any trapped clothing and close it firmly until it clicks
- Switch the washer off for a minute, then on again
Suffixes such as dE1, dE2, dC1 and dC3 identify the lock fault type depending on the model; pinpointing it requires inspection.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideLeak or abnormal water level detected
Related codes: LC · LE1 · LC1
The washer detected water where it shouldn’t be, or an unexpected water level during operation.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Leak from an internal hose or the door seal
- Drain hose placed too low, siphoning water out
- Excess suds from too much detergent
- Cracked tub or loose connections
Safe checks you can do
- Inspect the floor under and around the washer
- Check the drain-hose height and fixing
- Use the recommended detergent dose
If there is water near wiring or the socket, switch off the breaker immediately and do not touch the appliance.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideOverfill
Related codes: OC · OF · 0E · 0C
The water level in the tub is higher than the allowed limit, so the washer tries to drain it.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Inlet valve not closing fully
- Faulty water-level (pressure) sensor or a blocked sensor tube
- Excess suds causing a false reading
Safe checks you can do
- If water keeps entering while the washer is off, close the tap and unplug it immediately
- Reduce the detergent dose next wash
Water entering while the machine is off usually points to the inlet valve and needs a technician.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideWater-level sensor error
Related codes: 1C · IE
The control board receives an implausible reading from the water-level sensor, so it can’t tell how much water is inside.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Blocked or detached sensor tube
- Failed pressure sensor
- Wiring or connector issue
Safe checks you can do
- Switch off and unplug the washer for a few minutes, then restart
- Consider whether the washer was recently moved or knocked
Opening the top panel to reach the sensor is not recommended without experience.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideMotor error
Related codes: 3C · 3E1 · 3E2 · 3E3 · 3E4
The motor is not turning as expected, or the speed signal reaching the board is abnormal.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Load exceeds washer capacity
- Foreign object restricting the drum
- Motor speed sensor or wiring fault
- Motor or inverter control-circuit fault
Safe checks you can do
- Reduce the load and restart
- With the washer unplugged, check the drum turns freely by hand
If the code repeats, the motor and board need electrical measurement.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideWater heating error
Related codes: HC · HE1 · HE2 · HE3
Water does not reach the selected temperature, or gets hotter than expected.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Failed heating element
- Temperature sensor fault
- Limescale on the heater
- Heating circuit issue on the board
Safe checks you can do
- Try a cold-water programme to confirm the rest of the washer works
- Check the breaker didn’t trip during heating
Testing the heater requires isolating power and measuring resistance — a technician’s job.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideTemperature sensor error
Related codes: TE · tE1 · tE2 · tE3 · TE1 · TE2
The temperature sensor (thermistor) reading is outside the normal range, so heating can’t be controlled.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Failed thermistor
- Loose or oxidised connector
- Wiring issue
Safe checks you can do
- Restart the appliance after unplugging it for a few minutes
On washer-dryer combos, tE2 and tE3 may relate to drying-circuit sensors depending on the model.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideCommunication error between boards
Related codes: AC · AC6
Communication between the display board and the main or inverter board is interrupted.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Loose connector or damaged wire between boards
- Voltage fluctuations
- Fault on one of the boards
Safe checks you can do
- Unplug the washer for 10 minutes, then restart
- Try a different socket without extension leads
If the code returns after a restart, the boards need electronic diagnosis.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideExcess suds detected
Related codes: SUdS · Sd · 5ud
Not a fault by itself: the washer detected too much foam and paused to clear it before continuing.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Too much detergent
- Detergent not suited to automatic machines
- Old detergent build-up in the drum
Safe checks you can do
- Let the washer finish clearing the suds
- Reduce the dose and use a detergent made for automatic washers
- Run an empty drum-clean cycle
If it appears without heavy dosing, there may be a drain or level-sensor problem.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideStuck button on the control panel
Related codes: BE · bE1 · bE2 · bE3
The washer detects a button held down continuously, or a power key that doesn’t return.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Button stuck by dirt or detergent residue
- Moisture inside the button panel
- Faulty display/button board
Safe checks you can do
- Press each button gently and make sure it springs back
- Wipe around the buttons with a dry cloth
- Unplug for a few minutes, then restart
The suffix (bE1/bE2/bE3) may identify the button or switch type depending on the model.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideWater too hot at drain time
On some models, CE indicates the water is too hot when it is time to drain, so the washer adds cold water to cool it first.
Learn more
Likely causes
- High-temperature programme with hot incoming water
- Temperature sensor fault
- Drain problem delaying hot water from leaving
Safe checks you can do
- Let the washer cool and finish the cycle
- Make sure the inlet hose is connected to cold water
The meaning of CE varies between models — check your manual or send us the model.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideVibration sensor error
Related codes: 8C · 8E1 · 8C1
On some models, indicates a fault in the vibration sensor that monitors drum movement during spin.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Loose sensor connector
- Failed sensor
- Heavy shocks during transport
Safe checks you can do
- Unplug for a few minutes, then restart
- Make sure the washer is level
This code doesn’t exist on every Samsung model; it is mainly linked to models fitted with a vibration sensor.
Ask a technician about this code Full washer error-code guideAbnormal supply voltage
Related codes: 9C · Uc · 9C1 · 9C2 · 9E1 · 9E2
The washer detects supply voltage above or below normal and stops to protect its boards.
Learn more
Likely causes
- Fluctuating or low household supply
- Unsuitable extension lead or socket
- Fault in the board’s voltage-sensing circuit
Safe checks you can do
- Plug the washer directly into a wall socket, without extensions
- Notice whether lights dim when other appliances start
- Wait for the supply to stabilise, then restart
Sub-codes (9C1, 9C2, Uc) vary by model and indicate high or low voltage.

What are the most common Samsung washer faults?
Among the most common: drain problems (5E), water supply (4E), unbalanced loads during spin (UE) and door-lock issues (dE), plus leaks, loud noise and vibration.
What does code 4E mean on a Samsung washer?
4E (or 4C on some models) means the washer did not receive the expected amount of water. First check the tap is open and the hose isn’t kinked. If it persists, the inlet filter or water inlet valve may be the cause.
What does code UE mean on a Samsung washer?
UE (or Ub) means an unbalanced load: the washer can’t distribute the laundry evenly, so it reduces or skips the spin. Redistribute the load and make sure the washer is level. If it repeats with normal loads, the shock absorbers may be worn.
What does code 5E mean on a Samsung washer?
5E (or 5C) means the washer couldn’t drain in time. The most common cause is a blocked pump filter; it can also be a kinked drain hose or a faulty drain pump.
Do you supply spare parts?
If a part needs replacing, we explain what it is and the available options before fitting it, and we never replace a part without your approval.
Can I book a technician on WhatsApp?
Yes. Send the appliance type, model, fault, your area and a convenient time to 0782540147 — or use our service request form, which prepares the message for you.
Is Samsung-Elite an official Samsung service centre?
