Types of typical faults
Using a washing machine can significantly save the forces and time of modern people.
If the device suddenly ceases to work, a person's life becomes uncomfortable.
Incorrect operation of the washing machine, including the Samsung brand, can be manifested as follows:
- Water does not heat up. From a technical point of view, there can be many reasons for the malfunction. But in practice 95% of devices do not heat water because of the failure of the TEN.Slightly less often the cause of the malfunction lies in the breakage of the supply circuit, when the terminal burns. Very seldom the cause of the problem is faulty sensors or a malfunction in the operation of the control unit;
- Water does not flow. For a normal flow of water, pressure is necessary, and if it is not there is no water. Usually this happens if you forgot to open the water tap, which is connected to the Samsung car. If the water stops coming after a short time after the start of washing, it is a signal that the filter has clogged and needs cleaning;
- The water is drained immediately after the set. The cause of the sowing may be incorrect connection of the device to sewerage communications. In this case, the problem does not necessarily appear immediately after the connection, - it is not uncommon for the cases when the sowing was detected after a certain period of operation. Another reason for the can be more serious internal failure, which leads to disruption of the program control. In this case, finding a fault is as important as eliminating it;
- A pool of water appeared under the car. There can be several reasons. If the puddle appeared after washing the curtains, then there are no reasons for concern. A large amount of foam, formed due to the fact that the curtains almost do not absorb water, seeps through the technical hole on the floor and settles in the form of water. Another possible reason is poor hose laying, which brings water. It must be replaced and the problem disappears. But if the water flows out due to leaks in the branch pipe or a rush in the cuff or leaks in the drum, - serious repairs will be required;
- Samsung machine can not drain water. The most common solution to the problem can be very simple - clean the drain pump filter. If you do this regularly, there will be no such problems. Otherwise, the clogged filter will inevitably lead to breakdown of the drain pump, and then you will have to buy and install a new one;
- Problem with turning on the washing machine. Normally, devices do not turn on if there is no power. That is, one of the possible causes of the phenomenon can be broken cork or banal forgetfulness. So, you need to plug the wire into an outlet or choose the correct protection. But it is also possible that the Samsung control unit does not work and its repair is needed;
- Increased noise and knock on the running machine. If suddenly there were similar symptoms, then in the mechanism of the problem. This happens if there is a foreign object inside the tank. Also, one possible reason may be the uneven distribution of laundry inside the drum. Among other reasons for the malfunction is the failure of the bearings or an improperly installed machine.
How do I disassemble a washing machine?
To ensure the repair of the Samsung machine, it is necessary to make available the mechanism of the device, that is, to disassemble it beforehand.
For this it is necessary to prepare such tools:
- Phillips screwdriver or screwdriver;
- flat blade screwdriver;
- pliers;
- hammer;
- hexagon and hex wrench for 8;
- cutting pliers.
First remove the top panel. Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the screws located under the top panel on the back of the Samsung machine.
Then, the rear of the panel is lifted slightly, and the second hand helps to push the panel towards you.

The next step is to remove the detergent tray located on the front panel.
To do this, pull out the tray and use a cross-head screwdriver to unscrew the screws on each side. Disconnect the tray.
Now remove the control panel Samsung will be easier.
This is convenient to do this: with one hand, hold the control panel on the right side, with the other hand carefully and gradually move the left side of the panel towards yourself, unhooking from the mounting hardware.
From the control panel inside the machine go the wires, it is important not to damage them.
Therefore, the control panel is suspended from the right side of the Samsung washing unit using a special service device.
In order to better represent the process, we recommend that you look at the video instruction.
Next, pull out the service panel, it is located below the door of the hatch.
Screws that strengthen the panel are located on the sides of the washing machine Samsung. They are unscrewed from the panel, using a Phillips screwdriver.
To detach from the body of the service panel Samsung will require a small effort, so it will come in handy with a plastic or wooden crowbar.

Now, having opened the door of the window, remove the clamp and the cuff of the central panel. Then unscrew the screw with the cross-head screwdriver, which fixes the central panel.
Perform the following steps:
- dismantle the central panel. It is carried out together with the hatch;
- disconnect the door-locking connector;
- using pliers, weaker than the hose clamp, then remove the hose and clamp;
- remove the manhole cuff with a Phillips screwdriver;
- remove the cuff collar with a flat screwdriver;
- remove the cuff from the drum.
For the assembly of the washing machine, the same actions are used in the same sequence, only in the reverse order.
How to replace the heater in the washing machine
The need to replace the heater is one of the most common failures. The main reason is the hardness of water, due to which an increased amount of scale is formed.
Carry out repairs by yourself, like replacing the heater is not difficult. To do this, turn off the washing machine from all communications - electricity and sewage.
We check if the water remains in the mechanism. If yes, then merge it through the drain filter. We provide access to the heater.
In Samsung devices, it is located under the front cover.
Remove the front cover-panel.
Determine the exact location of the heating device. As a rule, the heater is located under the tank, at the bottom of the mechanism. Carefully disconnect all wires leading to the TEN.
At the same time, we mark them with a marker so that they do not get confused when you reconnect. We loosen the fixings of the heating device.
Carefully dismount the heater, taking care not to touch the other elements of the mechanism. The place where the heating element was cleaned from the remains of scale. We mount a new heating device.

- we unscrew 3 connecting bolts from a snail of the pump and the case;
- we disconnect the pump from the electric circuit;
- unscrew the pump from the filter;
