Samsung Washer Error Code 2E: Meaning, Checks & Repair

If a Samsung washing machine shows **2E**, the verified Samsung meaning in this research set is **power / voltage error**. Use the code to narrow the diagnosis, then confirm the exact model because code scope can change by product generation or region. Samsung uses overlapping code conventions across model years and regions. This page keeps the appliance context attached to the code so a same-looking string from another product family is not misapplied. The recorded display form is **2E**. Search normalization stores it as **2E** while preserving the characters a homeowner actually sees.

Error code 2E
Appliance Washer
Quick answer

Power / voltage error.

Model compatibility: Samsung can reuse or reformat codes across series and model years, so 2E may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Signs

Symptoms you may notice

  • When the 2E condition is present, the appliance can stop, restart, or refuse a high-load function.
  • On affected Samsung washing machine models, the code can appear after a surge, brownout, outage, incorrect supply, or frequency problem.
  • Depending on the exact model, some models preserve the display even when one required power leg or voltage range is abnormal.
  • While 2E is active, 2E appears during the washer stage associated with power / voltage error.
  • A symptom that fits 2E is that the cycle may pause, stop, retry, drain, or refuse to advance until the condition is cleared.

Before you call

Safe checks you can make

These are simple, non-hazardous checks only. If anything is unclear, stop and contact a technician.

  • A safe owner-level check is to confirm the breaker has not tripped and the appliance is connected as specified by Samsung.
  • With 2E recorded, if the event followed an outage or surge, perform only the documented one-time power reset.
  • Before opening any service area, do not perform live mains-voltage measurements unless qualified.
  • As an external check for 2E, stop if breakers trip repeatedly, plugs/outlets overheat, or there is arcing.
  • Before requesting service for 2E, record the code and the cycle stage where it appears.
  • To rule out an accessible cause, verify owner-accessible water supply, drain hose/filter, load balance, door, detergent, or power only when relevant.

Important safety warning. When working around a washing machine that shows 2E, keep the checks external and non-invasive. Disconnect power and stop use for active leakage near electrical parts, smoke, burning smell, or repeated breaker trips.

When to request repair service

Persistent power/voltage codes need the household supply and appliance power/control circuits checked safely before parts are replaced. In a service visit for 2E, model-specific testing should follow the power / voltage error circuit rather than treating the code as proof of one failed part.
