Today we will tell you about one of the most common and easily fixable malfunctions in the Samsung washing machine. The topic of our article is UE error on a Samsung washing machine - A small but annoying problem that you can try to fix yourself without risking damage to something in the device. It is so uncomfortable to feel helpless and “depend” on an outsider - a master in the repair of washing machines. So let's get started.
You are the happy owner of a reliable and multi-functional Samsung washing machine, loaded the laundry into the tank, added powder, launched the corresponding washing mode. And it seems, everything went “according to plan” - washing, rinsing, but then something went wrong. At the time of spinning, the time on the display stops changing, spinning occurs at low speeds, and then - at 3 or 7 minutes and completely stops, and the display shows a UE error.
What does the UE error mean on the Samsung washing machine? This means that the electronics of the appliance detected an imbalance inside the drum of the washing machine and stopped the work process. On some models of washing machines, this error occurs under the E4 code, and if the machine does not have a display, then when the drum is out of balance, a temperature mark of 60 ° lights up and the indicators of all modes flash.
What causes the crash?
An imbalance inside the drum occurs if:
- you overloaded the washer or vice versa - underloaded it;
- You have loaded fabrics of different types that absorb and give water in different ways;
- You have loaded bedding with small items.
If things in the drum will have different weights, such a wash will not be evenly distributed during the spin cycle, which means that an imbalance will result. And, as a result, - on the washing machine Samsung burns UE.

What to do?
To rectify the situation is simple - you need to straighten the twisted linen, pull out small items from large ones, distribute products, depending on the fabric. To do this, you need to stop washing, disconnect the machine from the mains and wait for the machine to unlock the door. After you eliminate the cause of the imbalance, you can restart the spin cycle.
If after 5-7 minutes the door is not unlocked, it means that there is water left in the tank. You can start the pump in the "drain without spin" mode, or make an emergency drain of water. For this:
- unplug the washing machine;
- prepare a container for water - a bucket or basin and a drain hose;
- open the filter plug, which is located at the bottom of the washing machine;
- drain water from the device into the prepared container and close the filter.
After that, the door should open, you can straighten the laundry inside the drum and start spinning. It is better to test the promotion of the drum without laundry. If everything went smoothly - lay the wash and try to squeeze it. If the UE error continues to remain on the display, it is necessary to call the repair wizard.Indeed, sometimes the imbalance of the drum does not occur due to improper laying of linen, but because of internal damage - a belt break, a breakdown of the bearing or shock absorbers, the engine brushes are worn out or the speed sensor is out of order.
If the door does not open after an emergency drain, it means that there are more serious problems associated with the mechanics or electronics of your device. In this case, you can not do without the help of a professional.
Now you know how to avoid annoying misunderstandings during washing and what to do if a UE error occurs on a Samsung washing machine. Launch the wash correctly, select the appropriate mode and act in accordance with the instructions for the appliance - then your Samsung washing machine will not be “naughty”, but will work for a long time and without fail.
