Samsung dryer problems can during a regular chore into a stressful job. However, when your Samsung dryer is not working properly, it will display a code. The Samsung dryer error codes tell you where and what the issue is. Understanding these codes will help you troubleshoot your dryer issues. Here is a list of the most common Samsung dryer codes and how to fix them.
Door-Related Errors
If your dryer door is not closing properly, it could be because the door was not initially closed properly, something is caught on the door preventing it from closing, or the latch is broken. You will likely see dC, dE, dF, do, d0, 1 DC, or 1 dF display on your digital screen. While troubleshooting your Samsung dryer problems, look for the most obvious causes first. If it is the latch that is broken, you will have to contact a Wizard Appliance to replace the latch.
Jammed Button Errors
The dryer buttons can get stuck or damaged from repeated use. If you see one of the Samsung dryer codes bE, bE2, bC2,6E, 6E2, or 6C2 on your digital display, try pushing all the buttons on your appliance to see if any are stuck in place. If a button needs to be replaced, one of our qualified technicians can take care of your Samsung dryer problem.
Frequency Errors
Frequency errors indicate that there is an invalid power source frequency to your dryer. The Samsung dryer error code will displace on your appliance as FC, FE, or 1 FC. Restart the cycle. However, if the code remains after restarting your machine, you will have to contact us at Wizard Appliance.
Voltage Errors
If your Samsung dryer is not working because of a problem with the voltage being supplied to the appliance, you will see 9C1, 9E, 2E, or 9E1 displayed on your screen. One of the most common reasons why this Samsung dryer code error occurs is because the machine is plugged into an extension cord and not directly into the electrical outlet. If you are using an extension cord, remove it and ensure your machine is properly plugged into a working electrical outlet. Check to make sure the circuit breaker has not been tripped and your appliance’s cord is intact.
This Samsung dryer code is also commonly seen when people buy their appliances from another country because power grids and regulations differ from one nation to another. If you cannot troubleshoot your voltage error code, contact us at Appliance Wizards to inspect your machine and power source.
Communication Errors
Communication error codes like AC, 1 AC, Et, AE, EEE, AE3, AE4, AE5 or E3 will display on your digital screen when one or more of your machine’s internal components cannot communicate with each other. You can try your own Samsung dryer troubleshooting by turning your machine off for one minute and then try turning it back on. If your Samsung dryer is still not drying and the error remains, contact us at Appliance Wizard to book a same-day service appointment.
Temperature Errors
If there is an issue with your dryer’s temperature or sensors, you will see one of these Samsung dryer error codes: tC, tC5, 1 tC, 1tC5, t5, tE, tE3, tO, tS, tCS, or 1tCS. Before calling Appliance Wizard to service your machine, check to see if your Samsung dryer is not working because the lint screen or exhaust vent is clogged. Clean both areas thoroughly and run your dryer again.
Heating Errors
Heating errors occur if the lint screen or exhaust vent are clogged because without proper airflow, the warm air will get trapped in the dryer. If you see HC, 1 HC, HC4, or hE displayed as a Samsung dryer code on your digital display, check the vent and lint trap to ensure they are clean. If the error persists, contact us at Appliance Wizard.
Other Error Codes
Your appliance might display other Samsung dryer error codes to indicate one of the components is faulty. Some of the more common codes you will see are:
- 3C – motor error
- oD – dry time error
- 1 AC7 – electronic control error
- HC2 – gas ignition error
If your Samsung dryer is not working because of one of these errors, try unplugging your appliance to disconnect the power source and refer to your owner’s manual Samsung dryer troubleshooting section for tips on how to repair your machine.
