Richard April 14, 2024 for Model Number 592-49474 I need a door seal for my Kenmore Elite Model 592-49474 but parts for that model rarely come up in any searches and I have not found a door seal. I believe it is identical to a Samsung model but I do not know which one. Through a process of elimination I believe the door seal I need for my Kenmore is the Samsung DC97-16140G but cannot be sure. Can you cross reference these part numbers or a Samsung model number? Thanks, Richard
1 Answer Richard, This model is not coming up as a good model and would recommend double checking the model and resubmit your question. Read More...
Kim December 09, 2023 for Model Number WV60M9900AVA5 01 Hi, I need to replace the vibration sensor for the bottom tub on the samsung flexwash but I can't seem to see where it is located. any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
1 Answer Kim, the vibration sensor would be located on the top of the main tub about 6" from the front of the tub. Read More...
Kelly September 12, 2023 for Model Number WA50T5300AC/US 01 Samsung washer keeps getting an off balanced error code. I replaced the support rods but I'm still getting the same error code when it goes into the final spin cycle. I looked for the vibration Sensor but could not find it. Does this model have one? What else can I do to fix the balance error code.
1 Answer Kelly, Check to make sure that the rotor on the bottom is not loose and make sure that the tub is not loose. If this is good then the issue will most likely be a control board issue. Read More...
Graydon July 14, 2023 for Model Number WA50M7450AW/A4-00 Hi newbie to appliance repairs so having some trouble. I have a samsung top load washing machine and the control panel works I start the wash and the drum begins to spin, the drain pump starts but then nothing happens, no error codes, no water enters the machine. I checked the inlet valve for continuity and cleaned the screens and checked out and all the hoses to and from seem free from kinks/debris. Under the diagnostic mode I got the error code 8C1 but as I said the code doesnt come up on its own when I try to run a wash. My question is would a faulty mems sensor prevent the washer from filling or is this a separate issue ?
1 Answer Hello Greydon, the fault code 8C1 refers to the main control board not detecting tub rotation, this can be caused by a problem with the MEMS sensor which is part of the rotor /stator/MEMS assembly DC93-00236C, the wire harness from the control board to the stator/MEMS or a problem in the main control board. Suggest checking the wire harness first before replacing any parts. Read More...
Timothy June 23, 2022 for Model Number WA54M8750AV/A4 I have the 8C error and I have used a multi-meter to check for continuity and from the board down to the connect on the sensor and there is no issue. I reconnected everything and then checked voltages while it was on. All voltages seemed to be ok other than the yellow wire that was 0.3V and I think it is supposed to be at 0.5V. Is this the sensor or is it the board?
1 Answer Timothy, the error code 8C is going to indicate a failure in the display control if the wire connections are fully secure. Read More...
Phillip April 13, 2022 for Model Number wa48h7400aw/a2 When I start a cycle (doesn't matter which) my drain pump works but then it stops before the cycle actually starts. Error code 8E2. I've replaced the main control board, same error occurs. I can run a spin test and it completes without an issue. Connections and wiring at the board and User interface look good. Am I most likely looking at a MEMS sensor issue? or wiring harness?
1 Answer Phillip, An 8e2 error code displayed on the washer: check the connections at the main control board and/or check the wiring harness and harness connections. That error also points to the MEMS sensor having to do with vibration. Make sure the machine is level and the load is large enough to balance. If the sensor tests within specs check the harness for continuity and connectors for damage. The manufacturer says that the wire harness can break internally, causing intermittent continuity.

Peter C. January 07, 2022 for Model Number WA48J7700AW/A2 I keep getting an error code 8c2, and for some odd reason the machines will jump time also. The screen will show 7 minutes left then all of sudden it will jump to 13 minutes. I also get a UE code, for an unbalanced load. The spin cycle doesn't seem to spin very well when there is a load in the machine, but when empty spins faster. I purchased this washer in 2016. Also like to replace the balance rods since I'm going to have the washer apart. I did a lot of reviews on the problem and seems everyone says it's the vrt sensor or meme sensor, or the wire harness that connects to it. It seems like the plastic that the harness goes under can split the wire harness to cause these problems. Can you help figure this out?
1 Answer Hello Peter, The suspension rods are DC97-05280S. The rotor position sensor DC31-00098A or the RPS harness DC93-00579B can cause this issue and is quite common. If these do not correct the issue, it is possible to have a control circuit problem in the main control assembly DC92-01021V. Read More...
Madwelder November 29, 2021 for Model Number WA44A3205AW/A4 Got 8C code, then it would get stuck and not advance past rinse to spin. I have searched over the entire drum and can not find a mems sensor connected to the wiring harness and that includes following the harness from the board down to the motor. Some sites list DC93-00278B as the mems sensor but others don't even show it and there is nothing on this washer that looks like that sensor.
1 Answer MadWelder, Based on the information and model provided: In the Samsung washer, the 8C error code is displayed when the accelerometer is “silent” or gives incorrect/ weak signals to the control module. It can be tested through the DC92-01624A board. Some indications that there has been an issue with the harness having a broken wire in it. Read More...
Scott August 06, 2021 for Model Number WA50F9A6DSW/A2 Turn washer on, choose settings, and when I press start, it just beeps/dings and does not start. I replaced the control board and after replacement I get the same issue. Could it be door lock or door sensor?
1 Answer Scott, the failure would likely be in the door lock assembly DC34-00025E not sensing that the lid is closed. This could be caused by the magnet DC61-03184A in the lid being out of place or by a failed door lock assembly. Read More...
Dougz March 11, 2021 for Model Number WA50K8600AV/AA A critter got under my washer and chewed in many places on the wiring harness and the wires going to the drain pump. Currently, am experiencing error code 4C. I have resolved the critter problem, but would like to replace the harness and drain motor wiring - where can I order these electrical items?
