Clean Samsung Dishwasher Filter | DIY Samsung Model DW80K5050US | Step by Step Filter Removal

- Cleaning your dishwasher filter will be different for each model, but this style is prevalent in many Samsung models. The white residue can be caused by a few things, including lower quality dishwasher detergent as well as calcium, magnesium, and lime build up.
I used vinegar to wipe it down, but next time think I will try some CLR or other calcium removers to see if it helps. Much of it came off the filter a scrubbing, but plenty of it didn't. Since I got the majority of the clumps and our dishes haven't really been affected, I left it alone.

Thanks for actually showing how all the pieces come apart and go together. Also love the tip to run a vinegar wash from time to time.
Glad it was helpful!
THANK YOU sooo much! The manual that came with our model had nothing about how to clean our model & you really saved us!
Had we known we’d have to go through all this every 6 months, we’d probably bought a different dishwasher, although we love Samsung appliances & it’s a great dishwasher. But really? What a pain in the arse! 😅
Ah I know! I’m not really a huge fan of it. The wash arm on ours broke and it’s like 20% of the cost to buy a new one just to replace it 🙄 so glad it helped!
Thank you for making it easy to understand how to do it. I'm not handy around the house but you made it look like any average person can do it.
Awesome! Thank you for the kind words
One thing is for sure! Never EVER touch a Samsung appliance as far as a purchase goes. They are all junk.
Totally correct! Mine are going on 5 years and I’m just waiting for them to go..
Thanks! I followed all of your steps. Dishwasher drained and “OC” code gone. Working fine. Saved me lots of $.
Omg that’s so amazing to hear and thank you so much! Honestly, most internet trolls just criticize videos, so it really means a lot that it helped. Thank you!
Thank you so much! This video saved me calling a technician to look at it 👍
That’s so good to hear!
Just what I needed! Thank you!
You're so welcome! Thanks for stopping by
This was incredibly helpful. Thank you!
Awesome!
Very helpful. Thank you. Quick and to the point.
Glad it was helpful
Thanks for info! What a production just to clean a dishwasher filter! Worse performing d/w I ever owned. Wish I had my old kenmore!
You’re telling me!! In fairness, the sales rep told me they looked better than they performed lol so its my fault but I learned my lesson
I wonder why the one I bought was the cheapest s/s d/w in the store…. I too should have picked up on it. Hope I never have to buy another…..
I would never buy Samsung products again. Never any local service available. Whirlpool for me.
@@user-go9xm1lr9b from the voice of experience, don’t ever purchase the washing machine!
This was my first dishwasher In 10 years. My old one add a filter that just twisted off. This is absolutely ridiculous put too expensive to replace right now.
Appreciate the video. Completely lame the machine requires power tools to clean it. Other models just twist to pop off
You’re not kidding. And for the life of me I can’t seem to find a salt cell to keep the calcium down.
Hi @TheDIYrealtor your video was great and I followed the instructions and cleaned my filter nicely. I could see what was clogging it. I was so careful doing it and putting it back together, but when running my next normal cycle I got an “LC” error message. The manual says this represents a “Leakage Check” - a water supply valve connection leak. I am pretty sure this must have been caused by me not putting back certain components exactly right, would you agree? I didn’t touch anything else and the dishwasher worked fine before. I shut off the power, and I was going to try to put the components back together in a way that would solve this issue.
Do you have a recommendation of on what to look for specifically (ie the likely misplaced culprit) to fix this? 🙏🏻 I would be soooo grateful if you can help!!!!
Thanks for the vid! I have the same dishwasher and do you know What’s the thing on the side of the dishwasher on the left if you look at it it says open ↔️close I could not get it open today
Hi Carlie, did you get the answer for this ? I’m wondering the same. Thanks
Mine is the exact dishwasher you cleaned, but mine is clean as a whistle, however it makes a grinding noise while the water flows.
Yikes, not sure on that one!
Thank you!!!’ 😀
You’re welcome!
Would it not have been beneficial also to remove the plastic impeller below the drain cover where are bits and pieces can also accumulate?
No it would not have
@@TheDIYrealtor I saw on another video where there are some bones or glass fragments underneath the impeller.
I cleaned mine and now it doesn’t seem to be spraying properly. Anything you’d suggest I try or what I may have done wrong? I ran a load of dishes and they’re still dirty. I found your video and had done it the same as you.
Hmm. There are three areas where the water supply sprays from wash arms. The very top of the dishwasher, the bottom of the top rack shooting water up, and underneath the bottom rack. If the main water connection into the filter (from the bottom and back of dishwasher) did not get put back correctly then water may not be getting to the wash arms. There is also a water connection from the top rack when you slide it back into place. It’s possible that isn’t lining up either. Just brainstorming..!
Like when I cleaned my K Cup coffee machine with vinegar and water and it never worked again. 😮

I love my samsung, but the filter design is awful for diy cleaning.
It’s the worst I’ve ever seen!
Who in their right mind made a filter that requires a tool to take off 🤦🏻♀️
Worse design flaw ever
I know!!
Thinking of buying a Samsung dishwasher??
Watch the first minute or so of this video. Then give your head a shake and shop for another brand. 🤮🤮👀👀😡😡🤪🤪
Lol fair
