Samsung Error Code 4E

Seeing error 4E on your Samsung EcoBubble washing machine? I understand how frustrating that can be! This error typically means there’s a problem with the water supply—either the water isn’t coming in at all or the pressure is too low for the machine to fill up properly. Don’t worry, though; we can tackle this together!

### What Causes Error 4E? This error usually pops up when the washing machine can’t fill with water. It can happen for a few reasons, such as kinks in the hoses, blockages, or even a closed water tap. Sometimes, low water pressure from your household plumbing can also cause this hiccup.

### Step-by-Step Fix Let’s walk through some simple steps to get your washer back in action:

1. **Unplug the Machine**: Safety first! Always unplug your washing machine before attempting any repairs. 2. **Turn Off the Water Supply**: Locate the water tap that supplies your washing machine and turn it off. This will prevent any accidental leaks while you’re working. 3. **Check the Hoses**: Examine the water supply hoses at the back of the washer. Look for any kinks, twists, or blockages that may be restricting water flow. Straighten out any kinks you find. 4. **Inspect the Filters**: If the hoses look good, check the inlet filters located where the hoses connect to the machine. These can sometimes get clogged with debris. Gently remove these filters and rinse them under running water. 5. **Turn the Water Supply Back On**: Once everything is checked and cleaned, turn the water tap back on. Make sure it’s fully open. 6. **Plug the Machine Back In**: Finally, plug the washing machine back in and try running a cycle to see if the error persists.

### Difficulty and Cost Estimates This repair is generally easy to moderate, depending on how comfortable you feel about checking hoses and filters. If you need to replace the inlet valve (which can happen if it’s damaged), that’ll typically cost around $25 if you do it yourself or about $150 if you call in a pro.

### Estimated Time You should be able to complete this fix in about 30 minutes or less.

### Tools & Parts Needed - **Tools**: A screwdriver and pliers (just in case). - **Parts**: If needed, an inlet valve ($25).

### Safety Warnings Remember to always unplug the machine and turn off the water supply before starting any repairs.

If you follow these steps and still have trouble, it might be time to call in a professional. But hopefully, this guide helps you get your Samsung EcoBubble washing machine back to washing your clothes in no time!
