DC error code on your Samsung washer might be caused by various factors. Usually, it means a weight-related balance issue. Because of the load imbalance, the unit is unable to spin. You don’t have to be concerned about whether it’s a weight problem or anything else. This issue is pretty simple to resolve, and the steps to fix it are easy to follow. In this article, Jacob Dillard, an engineer at Appliance Repair Expert, will help with the solution to this error.
The DC error is one of the most common Samsung washer error codes that may usually be resolved by sorting the clothes in the machine. There are several potential causes of unbalanced loads. Bulky clothing, such as trousers, bedding, jumpers, coats, and so on, fall into this category. Check inside the machine and attempt to balance the items. Make sure the garments are evenly distributed. If the clothing isn’t balanced correctly, the spin barrel won’t be able to spin correctly.
Begin by rearranging the garments that are currently in the washer. If this doesn’t work, remove some clothing from the device and restart it. Perhaps the weight of the garments is too much for the barrel spin to handle. As a result, removing certain things may be beneficial. However, if you are washing a normal amount of laundry and there are no bulky items, reduce the weight as many normal-weight items may already exceed the spin capacity of the drum.
Furthermore, you should not use your washing machine to wash a small number of garments. Your washing machine will display DC fault code if you’re washing a single piece of fabric or a maximum of 2-3 garments. The problem is that these washers have a minimum and maximum load capacity. You cannot wash less than the minimum required weight or exceed it. In this case, a balance is important.
The DC fault should be resolved by adjusting the weights. If it doesn’t help, your washing machine may not be levelled. The system will identify this and provide a warning if this is the case. Make sure that your machine is installed on a level or flat surface. If you have a tool that allows you to check the level, use it to make sure that the washer is in good working order.
If you don’t have a levelling device, use a cup with a measuring scale or a glass of water. Place the cup next to the machine to examine whether the water’s higher level and the machine’s top are in the same place. You’ll be able to figure it out quickly.
Locate the adjustable feet under the washing machine, usually there is one near each corner. They can be adjusted by hand or with a tool. Use a wrench or pliers to turn the adjustable feet under the higher side and lengthen them until the washing machine is level. Keep checking with your measuring device. Once level, ensure all feet are tightened so they do not move.
If redistributing the laundry and levelling does not solve the problem, there may be other technical issues that you can fix by making an appointment with Appliance Repair Expert. But trying these steps first is the easiest way to troubleshoot and fix the Samsung washer DC error code.
