    Does the first letter of the error code not matter? It looks like a capital E without the top line.
    I disconnected the water lines and checked and cleaned everything. Everything looks good. Good supply of water with no clogs anywhere. Unplugged for about 15-20. Still doesnt run and shows code.

    Kenny Schindler,
    Samsung Washer Error Code E1 means a WATER SUPPLY ERROR.
    Check to be sure the washer is getting the proper supply of water.
    Check the water hoses for blocks or kinks, the faucet ON/OFF, and check for a water tube blockage in the washer.
    A component or part may be clogged with hard water or a part may be faulty. (Clean components and test parts with meter if needed)

    After you have that solved, simply try unplugging the Samsung washer for 10 minutes to clear the other error (if applicable).

    I have a Samsung VRT washing machine, Model WA5471. Washer worked fine and then all of the sudden now it doesnt run at all. When you turn the power on it reads an error code that I cant find anywhere. It looks like an E without the top line and then E1. Any clue what the problem could be?

  4. Tengo una lavadora Samsung 5451 y tengo problemas con el desbalance (dc) puedo hacer mi comentario en espanol si o no? graci. Si me contesta terminare mi comentario para pedir su ayuda y sugerencia gracias.

  5. These washers are famous for throwing the unbalance code because it only has four flimsy rods supporting the washer tub. take the top of your washer off. drill a hole at each corner were the rods are located and put zip ties through holes and secure tightly. This will fix the un-balance issues

  6. Hi! I need to change the light bulb on our Samsung aqua jet VRT washer and I’m not sure how to do that. Can you advise??

    Thank you!
