Samsung Washer 6E Code: Motor Speed Sensor Error

Content status: Verified

Error code 6E / bE
Appliance Washer
Quick answer

Samsung lists 6E and bE as a motor speed sensor error and gives a three-step restart.

Model compatibility: Samsung can reuse or reformat codes across series and model years, so 6E / bE may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

Motor speed sensor error shown as bE or 6E.

Motor speed sensor error: what you see

The display shows 6E or bE. Samsung names this a motor speed sensor error for washers in general, without a model restriction.

Restart sequence

  1. Cut power to the washer for 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. Restore power.
  3. Run the cycle again.

A code that continues after that calls for service.
