If your Samsung washing machine is giving you an error code, don’t worry – you can fix it yourself! In this blog post, we will walk you through the most common Samsung washing machine error codes and how to fix them. So whether you have a 4C Samsung washer error code or other common error codes, we’ve got you covered.
How to Fix 4E and 4C Samsung Washer Error Codes
Samsung washer error codes are a series of letters and numbers that appear on the washer’s display when there is a problem. They help users troubleshoot issues by providing specific information about what is wrong with the washer. By deciphering these codes, users can take steps to try to fix the problem before having to call a technician.
The 4E and 4C codes on a Samsung washing machine indicate an issue with the water supply. These error codes typically appear when your washing machine can’t fill with enough water to run the cycle. This can be caused by blockages, kinked hoses, inlet valve issues, temperature issues, or other water supply issues.
Check For Kinks and Clogs
To troubleshoot 4E and 4C Samsung washer error codes, start by checking the machine’s mesh filter screens for blockages. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water supply hoses to access the mesh filter screen. To clean the filter screen, scrub gently with a toothbrush or other similar brush. While the water supply hoses are disconnected, you can check for kinks or clogs.
Check Hot and Cold Hoses to Resolve 4C Samsung Washer Code
Next, reconnect the hoses and ensure the hot and cold hoses are connected correctly to the corresponding water inlets on the washing machine. Turn the water supply back on.
Check Drain Hose
Check that the drain hose is securely connected. The drain hose shouldn’t be inserted more than six inches into the drainpipe and shouldn’t form an airtight connection.
Clean Dispenser Drawer
Next, clean the dispenser drawer if it’s dirty. Excess detergent can build up and prevent detergent from reaching your clothes. To clean the dispenser drawer, remove them and scrub them under warm water with a soft brush.
