You are a life saver....not to mention a money and time saver. I kept getting the DC code and couldn't figure it out. The lid wouldn't latch. Obviously, broken. Still I stuck a tiny magnet in there, per your instructions and...voila!!! Back in business! I guess I will just have to leave the small magnet in there indefinitely. Kinda stinks because the washer only 2 years old and is at our lake condo so it is used only a few months out of the year. My last Samsung washer and dryer for sure.
this isnt the video i was searching for but it did help me i thought there was something wrong with my washer cause there was no water coming out when i hit start but i relized it took your washer a min to start before the washer started filling up so i went back hit start waited a min and boom it works lol thanks for the video
this worked on my washer but i had to push part of the latch in, in order for the machine to sense that the lid was closed because when i tried bypassing it with a magnet the first time it didnt work
God Bless you out here doing the real saving! I'm doing this in 42 minutes when the ##%#-#%%$$ pos finishes it's cycle that has zero items in the washer but won't let me cancel it!
This was helpful. When I had a Samsung WA48H7400AW I never did that before because I don’t know but on a front load I never do otherwise clothes can spill.
I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT! After several months, I reached a conclusion that the washer should be powered on, unplug the son of a bitch, wait about 5-10 minutes, plug it back in and wait for several minutes and BAM!! It’ll unlock on you. Just gotta be patient!! I kept plugging/unplugging, pushing/holding every button possible but I did not try waiting a few minutes. It will stay locked after you power it back up, but wait 5-10 minutes. I can’t clarify that enough. Hope this helps!
I have a top load large drum and the door is locked and it stopped mid cycle with deep water and I can't open the lid. Called technician because it's under Manufacturer's warranty. I tried to reboot it by unplugging and re-plugging it and there were no lights at all on the dash. Machine wouldn't come on and I bought it 4 months ago. Technician coming this week to fix it.
I have an older Samsung top loader, I can’t figure out how to bypass it. It wouldn’t be such a big deal if the lid on mine wasn’t so heavily tinted. I’m glad the newer ones aren’t tinted as heavily.
I think the older ones you have to place a magnet on top of the stopper and also block the tab from protruding more than half way. 2 steps. There's a video on that.
Bummer. My Samsung is only 6 yrs old and the magnet kept the lid open while the lock engaged but washer didn't want to fill for a wash. It kept trying to empty the tub when there was nothing to empty
@@jackfntwistany way you can find what video in your watch history? Mine shows the same model number as in this video, but has /US at the end... and the magnet trick isn't working for mine!
I'm 10 months late however I thought it was my sensor as well. I placed the magnet on the actual door and voila! ... it worked. It was as if the magnet behaved as a sensor.
Finally someone ACTUALLY showing how to do it. You’re a gem!!
Thank you so much!
PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COST ❤❤❤

This WAS a big help and it go to the point, thank you!

That used to drive me nuts until I figured out that it was balancing the clothes out before adding water.

Surely you are joking about not k owing how to pull the plug from the outlet

Once I see a Samsung top load, will bypass it.
Sweet, I'm still trying to figure out how to bypass the lid lock on my GE machine (I've already got a few videos of that machine).
Thank you! I have the same washer :)

Thank you for your comment! Tried it and it worked
How does this work on the new samsung toploaders where the door latch, which is very narrow and deep and on the side of the machine? thanks
how do you close the lid so water doesn't splash out once the latch is in the lock position?
Does this work on older samsung washers? I have the model that has a tub where you can wash your clothes in it.
can you a make few Samsung washer videos this weekend?
If i get time, then yes
How do I open mine with no power on?

When you start posting Samsung stuff again?🎉
Whenever I get a chance, since I have lots of things to do

yours might have the two step lock. magnet on top and also block the tab that sticks out like half-way. I saw a video on that.

@@kristenyoung7853 I'm looking now, but if your model / lid looks exactly like this, this should work for you.
This does not help if the door lock sensor has failed that is my current problem with this piece of junk
I actually need to bypass via the wiring or inside the switch itself aswell.
I'm 10 months late however I thought it was my sensor as well. I placed the magnet on the actual door and voila! ... it worked. It was as if the magnet behaved as a sensor.
For a Samsung with 6 wires red and black together, white and green together, brown and blue by itself, this worked for me. Hope it helps.
