Having an issue with your Samsung Washing Machine? If you are seeing an error code of 4C, you may be able to apply a few simple troubleshooting steps to sort it out. An error code 4C in Samsung washing machines signifies an issue with the motor. Take a look at the simple steps below to help diagnose your issue.

Firstly, check the power cord. Make sure that the washing machine is securely plugged in to a working outlet. If you make any changes to the power cord, press the Start/Pause button and make sure the machine is reset.

If the power cord is plugged in correctly and the machine is reset, try unplugging the washer for approximately 10 minutes, then plugging it back in. This will usually reset the washer and clear the code.

For more persistent issues, you may need to physically check the wiring harness on the motor. Gently tug on each wire connection, making sure the wires are firmly connected. Replace any wires that seem loose, frayed or damaged.

Finally, check that no foreign objects are stuck in the vacuum breaker. There are helpful guidelines available online outlining how to check and reset the vacuum breaker.
