Question:

How to troubleshoot Samsung washer issues related to spinning?

Answer:

Problem 1: Samsung Washer Won't Spin Or Won't Stop Spinning

Solution 1:

First, check the load size and distribution. Ensure the laundry is evenly spread and not too large or unevenly distributed, as this can cause the washer to spin slower or not at all. Next, match the laundry type to the cycle, as incorrect selection can lead to performance issues.

For front load washers, try rocking and wobbling the machine to check its levelness. If it's not level, adjust the legs until it is. Then, run a test cycle to ensure stability. For top load washers, fill the tub with water and make sure it stays centered. Adjust the legs as needed to level the washer.

Clean the pump filter (front load only) regularly to prevent clogs and maintain proper functioning. Ensure the drain hose is inserted correctly (between 6 to 8 inches) and not forming an airtight connection. Check the height and condition of the drain hose, and install the drain hose holder correctly.

Problem 2: Run Calibration Mode On Your Washer

Solution 2:

To run calibration mode, first, remove everything from your washer. Then, simultaneously press and hold the Temp. and Delay End buttons for 3 seconds until "Cb" appears on the display. Release the buttons and press Start/Pause. The tub will rotate back and forth for 1-3 minutes, then display "En," "End," or "0" and turn off, indicating successful calibration. If the tub doesn't spin, service is required.
