The 5C error code indicates that the washer is not draining properly. There may be an issue with a blockage or sharp twist in the drain hose or the hose isn't at the right position relative to the washer. The hose should not be more than 6" into the stand pipe and should not develop an air lock. There could be debris in the filter area before the drain pump, or a problem with the pump. For a front loading washer, get a bucket to catch some of the water in the system. Unplug the washer and remove the appropriate panel to access the debris filter area. Open the filter cover and look for foreign objects. (Coins are a frequent item that will collect in this area.) Remove any foreign objects. Look into the machine at this opening and check if something could be blocking the impeller of the pump. If you see any damage to the impeller, replace the parts.

See https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00030150/ for accessing the debris filter on most Samsung front-load washers.

I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the model number of the washer for further assistance.

What does a SC error code mean on my Samsung front loader with dr in dr

It is actually “5C” which is an error code informing you that it is not draining properly. There is a small access door on the lower left of the machine. Open that door, get a bucket and put the hose behind that door in the bucket and remove the plug. After all the water drains out, then remove the trap filter by unscrewing it. Clean that out and your problem should be fixed

Information code signals "2E"

birdy, this 2E is the code for voltage to the motor control is either over or under specifications. You might have a harness loose on the motor control board. I have run into a few of these where all it was, is one harness not seated all the way. I believe you can get to it by removing the back center panel and it should be down on the right. Check all the harnesses going to it. Reset them if possible. You can also try putting it through the self test. Press and hold the chime and xtra rinse button together for 3 seconds. When the display shows 0, press and hold the wash/rinse and soil level keys for 3 seconds. It should go in the self test mode. It will check all the componets. If it passes, it will display a PA. If an error exists it will display SC. Look for a code of 91. Catriver..post back
