Samsung FlexWash Washing Machine

CNET Review:

[msmichels]

I have had my flexwash for a month and same exact code. I had to unplug and call a repair man. The night beforeHe arrived I plugged it back in and to my surprise no code and worked just fine. I kept the repair appointment to understand what was going on. He said this code is triggered by a water sensor at the bottom of the machine caused by overflow of either bleach or fabric softener in the top of the machine or by too much soap in any of the compartments. The reason the machine shuts off is for protection of the electronics in the machine and the constant beep will make you want to unplug it. if you unplug and in my case 1 day later the moisture in the bottom of the machine dried up -which is why it worked on it’s own. It was also noted due to the new technology it could be a defective sensor. He said to call if it happens again. Premeasure soap, softener and bleach any excess will cause a shutdown. This machine is so tall it’s easy to miscalculate. I hope this helps anyone with same issue

Ms Michels is so right. I had the same code. The signal didn't go away right after cleaning the filters both top and bottom, so I was forced to unplug. The machine is back to normal after
overnight resting, everything works just fine ! Give the machine half to one day resting is the key part that this video didn't say. Hope this helps !

My was throwing this code so much I unplugged it for hours. Plugged it back in, same deal. Read that maybe the fab softener cup was overfilled and it was an internal leak. Put the drain hose in a bucket on the floor, tilted the machine to the left side a bit (twords the drainhose side) waited till as much waster as possible drained out, Put it back down, then picked the same side up again. Plugged it in and the code went away.

Had the same error, I just tilted it for a minute then it started working. I think it needed to dry up.

LC1 means low water level or more problems on the FlexWash, It's unknown what the 1LC1 error means.

Turning off the FlexWash with the LC1, 1LC1 errors will cause the washing machine to turn on itself

0:19 So I don't get it, did it turn itself on?

[GreysonLeard]

I wonder why they were both doing that

Lc is a water leakage code. The correct step is to check the water pressure sensor hose for signs of damage or if it has been disconnected. Also check the sensor for resistance. Unfortunatly this machine has two and one is difficult to get to. If you are not comfortable disassembling your machine i would have a technician complete this for you.

This model is a piece of crap. In fact, these front load washers and dryers break down at an incredible rate. A traditional washer and dryer would last 15 years before ever giving a hint of a problem...maybe a dryer element now and then, but no big deal. These overpriced lemons should just be chunked. I was suckered. Never again. I am don't with these "Modern" pieces of crap.

IT detects moisture where is not supposed or it the sensor itself

[masterdaddy]

I found the top washer was leaking during a spin it was pushing water through the fabric dispenser causing a leak I think its clogged waiting for new fab dispenser assembly for the fix

Leak error code. I’m a appliance tech. We have access to all codes and service bulletins. I had customers with these issues before and it’s a easy repair. But it’s just cleaning we need to do no parts needed.

*Water leak safety system was detected the water leak*

[mizzj]

What fixed your problem? I’ve cleaned the lint traps & the drain hoses aren’t clogged.
