Seeing **4C** on a Samsung dishwasher narrows the problem to **water supply error**. What you do next depends on whether the code is an issue, a normal status/test message, or a model-dependent interpretation. A display code is evidence from the control system, not a component test result. That distinction matters because a connector, supply condition, obstruction, or feedback signal can mimic a failed component. The recorded display form is **4C**. Search normalization stores it as **4C** while preserving the characters a homeowner actually sees.

Water supply error.
Model compatibility: Samsung can reuse or reformat codes across series and model years, so 4C 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. Stop use for active leakage near electrical parts, burning smell, or repeated breaker trips. Do not defeat leak or door-safety switches. For 4C, stop troubleshooting immediately if the symptom crosses into a safety hazard rather than a normal diagnostic condition.
If supply flow is proven good and the display returns, inlet valves, flow/level sensing, wiring, or control electronics may require diagnosis. In a service visit for 4C, model-specific testing should follow the water supply error circuit rather than treating the code as proof of one failed part.

Water supply error.
One controlled restart is reasonable after correcting an obvious external issue. A recurring **4C** 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 **4C**, worsening performance, or any electrical/water/heat hazard is a reason to stop use.
No. **4C** tells you which condition or check the control detected. The same display can result from the named component, its wiring, a connector, a supply/airflow/water condition, or the control that reads it.
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 **Dishwasher 4C** separate from same-looking codes used by other Samsung appliance families.
