Check the drain hose for kinks, clean the pump filter (usually behind a small panel at the bottom front, with towels ready), try the emergency drain, and read any error code. Samsung says the commonest causes are a clogged debris filter or a failed drain pump, and a restriction or dead pump needs service.
Key takeaways
- Straighten the drain hose.
- Clean the pump filter.
- Check the error code in the manual.
- Dead pump or internal blockage: service.
