Samsung Washing Machine 5E Error Fix
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- I explain how you can fix your Samsung front load washing machine that is giving you a 5E error. It's a 5E not an SE error as I later found out. It's a pretty simple fix as there is a filter in the lower front left of the washing machine that unscrews out so you can clean it. You're supposed to clean it out every 2 months. After you clean it out this will fix your Samsung 5E error.

Fixed the washer for my family IM the man of the house now
Hell yeah! Glad I could help!

Thanks for the video!!! If anyone still has an issue after cleaning the filter (like I did) then try taking a coat hanger and gently pushing it up the hose that leads to the filter. Have your bucket in place, a bunch of water may come out when you dislodge whatever was blocking the hose.
I didn't even know there WAS a filter! It's on my calendar now! Thank you so much!
I didn’t either. After this happened I was like there literally is a sticker on the front of the machine that says to clean it every 3 months. I was like damm if it were a snake it would have bit me.
This was such a big help. Thank you! So clearly and concisely explained. The hold time with Samsung tech support was 1 hour 45 mins. I was able to watch your video and fix in 10 minutes. Thanks again!
Glad I could help
Thanks so much! Found two pens, blow pop wrapper, lots of hair and a $10 bill. 1st cleaning since installed 3 years ago.
$10 bill is mine for the advice. 😀
And you got paid!
I've come back to this video about three times over the years. I can't thank you enough!
You’re welcome
Thanks for the video. I've been encountering the exact same issue for a week off and on. Just pulled the filter and as you stated, never saw the label requesting it be cleaned...so it had 3 years of hair and dirt in it. Seriously was the most putrid smell I've ever encountered. Just ran a cycle and now it's working as normal.
WesMoran same 🤢🤢
Lifesaver! Just had to call repair for dryer- then THIS happened. Followed your instructions and all fixed. Thank you!!!!
You’re welcome glad you got it fixed.
Worked like a dream! Now I know to do it more often than every three years or more!
Wow!!!! This actually worked!! Im home with no man around at that moment and needing to finish my laundry 😩😩😩😩
Thank you -you are the best!!!!
You’re welcome. Glad it helped you out.
I did this to my washer and drained the water out and cleaned the filter and it was even more filthy than the filter in the video and the washer works perfect now, thanks for the video!!!
You’re welcome. Glad it helped you out. Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for this. Fixing my machine right now.
Advice for those of us that have the machine on the floor, so draining into a bucket isn't possible. The small hose fits inside a lawn hose. You can insert it and run the lawn hose outside into the grass.
Thanks again.
Thanks for the idea of connecting to a hose - this is currently helping me drain!
I hadn't cleaned the filter for years, hence I needed a pliers to open it, and it was full of crap. So thank you so so much for your educational video.
Thanks so much! Just moved to a rental with this washer/dryer and could not figure out this error! Unfortunately ours is on the floor, so it’s a little hard to drain, but eventually got it all cleared out and fix the problem!
Sweet. Glad I could help!!!
Thank you so much!! My washer just started doing this, and man on man was that filter dirty. Thank you again!
I have been getting this now for 4 months not all the time but like once every 8-9 days. I will try this. Hope it works.
Don't forget to clean every two months... Same thing happened to me
Thank you for posting this video. I got our washer going again and avoided having to call the plumber. This washer was left by the former occupants of our home and we didn't realize you need to clean the filter every month or two. Our filter was filthy - had a couple really small socks in it along with all kinds of other grimy stuff.
Thank you! This has been going in for 2 days and I was about to lose it!
Thank you so very much! My washer kept stopping mid cycle and I couldn’t figure out why. You helped me fix it, thank you!!!
Sweet. Glad I was able to help.
I almost gave this a negative post. I followed these steps and the filter was full to the brim with two baby socks and 'junk'. Filthy. But I had the same issue as the 5E error was still there. I did these steps again and looked back to find out that there was yet another baby sock (I have a 10 month old here) jamming it up way in the back. It took about 10 minutes to find the right tool to fiddle with it but now I don't receive the error. So persistence wins the game when it's a big mess.
Thank you so much, the internet and best buy both wanted me to go behind my machine and pull out the hose. You saved me a headache for no reason!
Thank you so much I just fixed my washer without my husband help a sock was stuck in the bottom I made a big mess but I did it.👍🏻God Bless you
God Bless you!!! Without your help I wouldn’t have been able to get my machine back up and running! You’re the best!!
Thanks. Glad it helped.
So I definitely should have watched the whole video before I just removed the filter apparatus... at least it was mostly drained? But thanks for the great video.
Now I just have to remember to clean the strainer. I actually did once, about 3 months after I moved in. But there wasn’t anything there really, so I filed that task under “unimportant” and ignored it for 2 more years. Whoops.
Thank you so much life saver! Hubby's at work and have a ton a laundry I needed to finish. This was very easy to follow.
Thank you very much for this video, i also thought it was SE error and thanks to this video i saw it was 5E :)
Thanks for watching.
God Bless you man! Saved me from having to hawk my wedding ring to pay for repairs on this Samsung washing machine.
Glad it helped.
It worked! Thank you for sharing 😀 Our washer is on the floor so we slid a cookie sheet under and hoped there wasn't a lot of water! There wasn't.. but did find coins and other debris in the filter. Cleaned it out and popped it back in. Washer picked right back up where it left off!
Thank you, thank you!!! I assumed something much worse was wrong but I just finished up fixing it as I watched your video!!
Glad it helped.
Thank you so much!!! I live in a rural area, and it would have cost me double to have a guy come fix this, and at first when I saw that computer generated error message I assumed this would be something way to complicated for a middle aged lady artist to fix for herself. But then I got to thinking that I should look on RUclips first, in case some wonderful person like you have posted a video that I can understand, and BINGO!!! Sure enough, that filter was crammed full of wet lint and pet hair from my long-haired cat. He's a Siberian Forest Cat, and his coat makes other long haired animals look practically bald nekkid. Because of the pet hair, it came out in one well organized lump, but I went ahead and scrubbed the filter with a brush anyway just to make it shine. I did one thing differently from you, which is that I ran the "spin only" cycle to try to empty the washer, and it got out most of the water, and I only had to drain about 1 quart into my bucket. Seriously, thank you so much for your amazingly helpful video, and the money that it saved me. I put a sticky note on that little door to remind me when I cleaned that filter, and I put a reminder on the calendar on my computer too, to clean that filter again in 2 months. Wow, you really made my day!
I had the 5E error show up on the washer. This fix the problem. ❤
Glad it helped
Thanks mine is 3 years and same issue. Thank you soooooo much.
You’re welcome.

Haha. The internet is awesome.
Thank you so much. It was being a week waiting for a repairman to do it.👏👏👏😉😉😉Just fixed it😁😁😁
You’re welcome.
Crazy…. I was going to do that and just needed to wrap my mind around who to call incase this was not the problem 😔…. It was the solution… thank you very much 🙏
Thanks so much! Just moved in and working on my house and the last thing I needed was to pay to fix the washer.
Super helpful video. Thanks for sharing. Fixed my issues with our Samsung washer as well. Keep putting such useful videos. You are helping everyone.
Thanks for watching
Thank you! I tried it and it worked!!! The filter was black and disgusting and smell was horrible!
Glad I could help. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Fixed the 5E error after following your very clear instructions. Saved a service call and $$$'s!
Thank you for watching.
Thank you for this video. It helped me today. Found a little sock and lots of wet dirt in there.

Definite thankful for this video!! My washer was doing the exact same thing!!!
Glad I could help.

Thank you so much for this video! I just fixed the washer without my husband’s help 😁
You’re welcome
I wish my wife would attempt to fix things before yelling for me!
RUclips creators for the win!
Your a life saver thank you so much never even knew what that was for ! Works amazing now!
Thanks for the video ! I didn’t realize all I had to do was clean the filter lol
Thank you sooo much. I loss the manual and couldn't figure out what the heck was going on Thanks again
Glad I could help.
Thank you so much now my wash machine is working back normal❤️❤️❤️
You’re welcome
Thanks Bro - I didn’t even know what that was for !! Machine is back to normal
You’re welcome
Thank you so much! Draining this was oddly satisfying. And the filter 🤢🤢🤢 worked like a charm.
Do you have to pee now? 😂😂
This video made my day. Literally! Thank you for posting. I can now resume laundry duties :)
You’re welcome.
You are a lifesaver for this! Thank you!
Thank you so much! We had no idea about this filter either! You probably saved us 700$
Thanks this just fixed my washing machine. The service guy was coming Monday but now I don't have to pay him.
Why are there so many dislikes ?? This is very helpful.
It’s RUclips. There isn’t much logic to it.
Thank you so much you just save my sanity
You’re welcome
Hi Reid,
I did as you suggested after getting the error, but now the machine just won't go into any cycle (Normal, Spin Only, etc.). It allows me to start one, but just makes the lock sound and maybe one other before it just stays idle and doesn't actually start the cycle.
After draining/cleaning once it let me run a rinse and spin with clothes in there, but it went 3 minutes into spin and just stalled out (no error, just stuck on 7 mins) with all of the water still in. Drained it again and now am where I mentioned before, won't actually start any cycle.
Any suggestions?
Does it give you an error code?
Two baby mittens and a baby washcloth.... thanks for your help haha
Now that’s kind of funny.
Is what came out of my filter- I meant to say
@@DIYReid I know! Thanks for your video
Thank you so much solved the problem
Nice! Thanks for the video, easy fix and the washer is back up and running.
You’re welcome.
Video helped alot. Thank you. Saved Me from calling a repairman!!!
Glad I could help.
Thank you for relieving the scare. And thank you RUclips
That’s why I love RUclips.
This video was so helpful. Thank you for posting this.
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching.
Omg thank you it worked for us too!!!!!!!!!! And our washer is also on the floor 😩😩 and I had to use my favorite glass backing dish good thing there wasn’t a lot of water.. but that dish definitely is going into the trash 😂 thanks again!!!
You’re welcome.
Hello, is there any chance you know the model number for this machine?
Thank you so much for helping me fix my machine
Glad it helped
Thanks! Very helpful
My utility room has a floor drain about a foot from the washer so I just unscrew the filter, I’ve never bothered with the little hose. I usually lose a quart or less of water into the floor & dry it with a towel or two.
Winning!
Cleaned some heavy debris out the filter, still not draining. I'm worried there might be something stuck further up the pipe I can't reach.
Did it drain through the hose?
thanks for this video, it was very useful and life saver... bless you x
If we have done this on front and back....and still constant 5E and suds....if not any suggestions
Thanks for this video. It was very helpful. Great job!
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching.
Reid thank you so much for this video!!!!!!!!!! This was soooooo helpful!!!

I'll email you soon, but can you make a video about turning off and on your washing machines signal sound?
I've been trying it, but I'm not doing something right.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks so much. We were going to buy a new washer 😬
You want my paypal for the difference.
😄
Thanks a lot. Helped me solve the issue.
You’re welcome
Thank you! Your video was extremely helpful!
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching.
Sanity saved. Thanks 😊
Glad it helped.
Thank you so much!! I saw the error and looked it up online and with your help I was able to fix it!! I seriously thought my girls broke it due to overloading it!!
So glad I didn’t go out and buy another one!! Thanks a million!! 😊
Hey thanks for the video. It made my job easy.
Glad it helped.
Any knowledge/experience with an AC6 error code?? Says check the pba communication status? I’m clueless lol. Any help is greatly appreciated! I have the same washer as you
We have this error and have cleaned that filter in the past and just did again and it did not fix the issue. Drain is fine but machine is still not draining. Pump runs and runs until 5E comes up every time
Classic Samsung cheapo crap. It’s been three years and the heating element on the dryer just had to be replaced a month ago too. 3 years seems to be the limit on these things until they start to act up. Plastic junk.
What about where the tube drains to the house?
DIY Reid as stated the drain is clear. Tried draining the machine to a bucket and it just trickles.
Turned out to be a sock in the pump. Required full disassembly to remove.
How a sock gets from the drum to the pump who knows. Maybe Samsung can explain that one LOL.
Still not ever going to buy another one.
@@quonsetthehutt3105 socks can be tricky like that. Happened on other brands too I've seen. Using a bag for socks helps
Perfect worked like a charm!!
Thanks for the Help. Lots of hair and some candy wrappers!
