Frequently Asked Questions: Samsung Appliances
How do I reset a Samsung washer?
Unplug the washer from the wall (or flip the circuit breaker) for at least 5 minutes, then restore power. Start a Rinse+Spin cycle to clear temporary error codes. For persistent codes, check our specific error code guides — some require a calibration reset via a button combination.
Why is my Samsung fridge not making ice?
The most common causes are the ice maker being switched off (check for a small on/off button or switch on the ice maker arm), the freezer temperature being set too high (should be -2°F / -19°C or lower for ice production), or ice jamming the mechanism. Hold the ice maker test/reset button for 3 seconds to force a harvest cycle and confirm the motor is working.
How long is the Samsung washer warranty?
Samsung provides a 1-year limited warranty on parts and labor for most washers in the US. The Digital Inverter Motor carries a separate 10-year warranty. See our Samsung Warranty Hub for country-specific details and how to file a claim.
