If you are getting the ND error code on your Samsung washer, this means it will NOT DRAIN. This error occurs when the washer cannot drain or at times it cannot spin properly. It is most commonly called: Water Does Not Drain From Washer. The information below will show you how to correct and reset the washer to clear the ND error code.
Samsung washer ND error code
When your Samsung Washing Machine will not drain or spin AND the “nd” error code is shown… Do the following to fix the washer yourself…
1 – Make sure the wash size is not too big.
2 – Be sure the clothing in the washer is balanced.
(If the tub is overfilled with clothing, the wash tub cannot spin at faster speeds, the washer may shut off if this is the case)
3 – Make sure the washer water drain hose (the drain hose from washer to wall) is straight and has no bends.
Washer drain hose – Make sure it is not bent or clogged
Make sure the washer drain hose is not pushed far into the draining pipe.
NOTE: A siphoning effect will happen if the drain hose is pushed in too far… thus causing water to come back into the washing machine.
Be sure washer drain hose is not in drain pipe too deep
1 – Make sure the washing machine door is completely closed.
2 – Be sure the pump filter is clean and not clogged or blocked in any way.
(The washing machine will not drain or spin if the pump debris filter is clogged. Here is info for How To Clean The Filter On A Front Loading Washer.)
3 – Make sure the washing machine is completely level. Use a level and put it on top of the washer to be sure it is level on the ground. If you find the washer not to be level, use the legs on the washer to level it.
Is the washing machine door locked? Clean the pump filter out as this will lessen the water level and unlock the door lock.

I have Samsung front load washer model WF209anwxaa.
It goes into nd error code with is no drain.
If i press start it immediately drains and runs the rest of time until done.
Cleaned pump and all hoses.
What can I do to correct this?
Travis,

Our samsung front load washer has ND code.
The complete pump assembly has been replaced, all hoses removed and checked. It will run, spin, drain then ND code. I use drain hose in front to drain and only get an ounce or two in a cup.
where is the sensor that tells it there is still water in it.
We are getting that ND error code on our Samsung front loader.
However it is draining so I don’t understand what’s going on.
I checked the filter it was clear, as it almost always is and as stated the washer is draining.
However each load stops part way through normally after the wash is going into rinse cycle and states ND.
I have the same washing machine and it is doing the very same thing I can drain from filter nothing in filter area did you find out what was the problem
Samsung VRT owner here. I was getting the no drain ND error code and dove into researching why myself. I pulled the drain pump and assembly group out and all hoses. 1st time around I had a clogged hose coming from upper part of washing cylinder (not large bottom hose). I ran it under water and it literally filled my sink with cardboard looking soap scum chunks. I assumed that was the culprit and assembled it back together. That worked for about 3 weeks. The ND code came back so I then bought a new drain pump. Well, while installing new drain pump I had noticed that the large gray gasket leading into washer has a drain itself. That was clogged with a large piece of plastic and surrounded by hair. Washer works like new now. Conclusion: ND definitely means pump is out or you literally have a clogged hose (check them ALL) or drain port.
I have a Samsung front loading washer VRT.
It will not drain, therefore it won’t spin.
If I manually drain the water, it spins.
Obviously, I can’t manually drain this thing every time I do a wash.
I have had a service man come out and check the pump and the hoses to make sure there is no blockage.
He said the pump has NOT failed and nothing is plugged or kinked.
I have no idea what to do.
