Error 4e in a Sumsung washing machine

Automatic washing machines with electronic display are no longer new. Information that appears while working on a small screen can be very useful. Indeed, in addition to the duration of the wash and the temperature of the water, machine manufacturers have included error codes in the program. We will deal with one of these errors - error 4e in the Samsung washing machine.

Error 4e Description

Error 4e means that for some reason the washing machine is not picking up water. This is easy to understand: you can’t hear the sounds of the accumulating water, and through the glass of the drum you cannot see the flow of water. Error 4 e in the Samsung washing machine can occur both at the very beginning of washing, and during rinsing, when soapy water is already drained, and clean water does not flow.

In some Samsung washing machine models, such an error is indicated not by the 4e code, but by the 4c ​​code.

Causes of occurrence

The occurrence of such an error can be caused by the following reasons:

1. Lack of cold water.

3. When connecting to the water supply, an error occurred in the connection of hot and cold water.
4. There is no water pressure, there is no pressure in the water supply.
