What does the error code 4e for the washing machine "Samsung"

Error c code 4E at the Samsung washing machine means that washing machine does not take water. Consequently, you do not hear the characteristic sound and you do not see how the water enters the drum, and the display shows the code. In some models, this error is indicated by the code 4C.

The reasons

Error 4E occurs in the following cases:

• there is no cold water in the water supply;
• bay valve plugged;

• incorrectly connected hot and cold water to the machine;
• low water pressure in the water supply;
• no cleaning hose connected to the cleaning agent container;
• software failure;
• control unit failure.

Appearance at startup

Usually the code appears on the display. at startup. First of all, check the water supply in the apartment.

If there is water in the faucet and the machine does not use it, then it follows:

1. Open the supply valve located on the water pipe if it is closed.
2. Carefully inspect the faucet, adapter and water supply valve for leakage, repair it if necessary.
3. Find out with what pressure the water passes through the hose.

At elevated head, the mesh filter is clogged. In case of blockage, follow the instructions below:

1. Turn on the water tap.
2. On the washing machine, disconnect the hose from the back surface. Close it tightly so that water does not spill.
3. Remove the filter installed in the Samsung washing machine with mites.
4. Rinse it thoroughly with water, cleaning the surface of the fastening thread from the outside and inside, or replace it with a new one.
5. Reinstall the filter and hose.
6. After making sure that the fasteners are tight, open the valve.

If there is no pressure, inspect the water supply hose. In the Aquastop model, the red indicator of water connection means that the hose will have to be changed as an emergency blockage occurred.

If the indicator is transparent or the hose is standard, proceed as follows:

1. Disconnect the device from the network.
2. Close the water tap to the machine.
3. Disconnect the hose from the valve and the device.
4. Fill the hose with water.

If it misses water, then the fault lies in the aqueduct, it is required to call the plumber. If fluid does not pass, clean or replace the hose.

Appearance before rinsing

Sometimes 4E occursbetween wash cycleswhen the machine has already drained the soapy water and in some cases pressed the laundry. If the device does not begin to erase, the error is eliminated as follows:

1. Check the cold water supply.
2. Turn off the power.
3. Make sure the drain hose is connected correctly.
4. Find out what the pressure in it.
5. Start the rinsing and spinning mode, previously connecting the machine to the network.

Code 4E or E4?

It is necessary to distinguish errors 4Е and Е4. The latter often occurs during the spin cycle and means that the drum balancing has been disrupted. In this case, removing or adding things, the weight of the laundry in the car is adjusted to the requirements for use. Laundry is evenly distributed on the drum, straightening lumps and knots. If this does not help, it means that the bearings, belts or electronic controller are faulty.

Other fixes

The malfunction of the controller can be explained in some cases and the error 4E.It is necessary to solder the tracks or elements that are responsible for the corresponding function (in the case of 4E - water selection) or replace the controller.

Any error may be caused by a software failure. To eliminate its consequences, the device is disconnected from the power supply for 10-20 minutes, and then switched on again.

If after all the manipulations carried out, the error code appears again on the display, the problem is in other details of the washing machine and you have to call the master.
