Samsung error codes

Imagine that you, as usual, loaded the laundry into the drum of the washing machine, turned on the washing mode, but that's bad luck, after some time, to your deep chagrin and disappointment, you found all the dirty water on your floor, and the error code LE or LE1.

 

LE error on Samsung washing machine. What to do?

Or perhaps this error appeared literally immediately after turning on the wash:

  • not even a few seconds after launch;
  • for a few minutes, the washing machine drains and fills with water at the same time, and then the error le appears.

It may be that the error code le appeared during the washing process, although at a superficial glance no violations are visible.

If your Samsung washing machine is not equipped with a screen, then in your case the error is indicated by the flashing of all mode indicators and the cold wash and Bio 60 indicators.

What does LE or LE1 error mean?

Both of these errors tell us the same thing. In the washing machine, the water drained out of the tank on its own, and the level sensor recorded a decrease in the level four times in a row.

If your washing machine has an aquastop, the float in the pan could also fix the leak. In this case, the error le will also burn.

If your Samsung washing machine gave this error, do not rush to call for help from professionals. Perhaps you yourself are able to cope with the violation.

You can fix the LE error yourself in the following cases:

  • When it's all about the drain system.error_code_samsung_drain Check your drain hose, it might be the cause.
  • In the case when your washing machine immediately after starting for several minutes does only what is at the same time fills and drains water, and after the error le appears, check at what level the connection of the drain hose to the sewer is. If it is below the level of the tank, then this is wrong. Hose must have a top loop. Install it correctly, or use the services of a specialist.
  • Maybe the problem is drain filter? Make sure it is fully screwed on.
  • If, together with the le error, water oozes out of the detergent dispenser, it is necessary to clean its channels, most likely, they are clogged with the remnants of washing powder and conditioner.
  • If foam appeared from the dispenser instead of water, and we are still worried about the error code le, then the point is probably the incompatibility of the washing powder. Or possibly an overdose. Try changing the powder to a better one. We also draw your attention to the fact that when washing fluffy or porous things, the amount of powder should be halved.
  • Check if the pipe connections from the tray to the tank and from the latter to the pump are properly organized. Possible water leakage at the connections.
  • The problem may lie in the control unit of the washing machine. You should try to give her a "rest". Unplug the power for a few minutes and plug it back in.
  • Are electrical contacts reliable? Perhaps there are gaps somewhere and they should be fixed.
  • Inspect your washing machine again for deviations from the normal state, perhaps the cause of the le error is elementary simple.

If none of the above could help you, then most likely your washing machine needs the help of a specialist.

  1. Once an LE error appeared ... I turned it off, unscrewed the filter, screwed it on again (more tightly) and turned it on again. Problem solved ;)
