For the Samsung Washer families covered by the source set, **nF** means **water supply / fill error**. The first useful step is to preserve the exact characters and model number before power cycling the appliance. Samsung appliances monitor whether a function reaches an expected state within a certain sequence. When that check fails, the control can store or display a code even though the root cause may sit elsewhere in the same circuit. The recorded display form is **nF**. Search normalization stores it as **NF** while preserving the characters a homeowner actually sees.

Water supply / fill error.
Model compatibility: Samsung can reuse or reformat codes across series and model years, so NF may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

These are simple, non-hazardous checks only. If anything is unclear, stop and contact a technician.
Important safety warning. Safety takes priority over clearing nF. Disconnect power and stop use for active leakage near electrical parts, smoke, burning smell, or repeated breaker trips.
If supply flow is proven good and the display returns, inlet valves, flow/level sensing, wiring, or control electronics may require diagnosis. If nF keeps returning, record the stage at which it reappears so the technician can test the water supply / fill error path instead of replacing parts by guesswork.

Water supply / fill error.
One controlled restart is reasonable after correcting an obvious external issue. A recurring **nF** display should be treated as diagnostic evidence, not as a reason to keep rebooting the appliance.
Short owner-accessible checks may be reasonable when the appliance is safe. Persistent **nF**, worsening performance, or any electrical/water/heat hazard is a reason to stop use.
Treat **nF** as a starting point, not a replacement instruction. Wiring, feedback signals, operating conditions, and electronic controls can mimic a failed component.
The same-looking code can be reused on another Samsung appliance family or reformatted by region/model year. Match the appliance type and exact model before applying a meaning. This page therefore keeps **Washer nF** separate from same-looking codes used by other Samsung appliance families.
