1E, E7, 1C? Water sensor error and its causes on Samsung washing machine

The following may happen with washing machine Samsung: some time after the beginning of washing you find that you do not hear the set of water in the tank and you pay attention that on the electronic display is lit one of the error code 1C, 1E, and on models manufactured before 2007, E7. The error may have appeared during the previous wash, at the time of the spin or rinse, but you did not pay attention to it at that moment. But after 10-20 seconds of a new cycle it happened again and stopped the machine.

If there is no display on the control panel, you can determine this error by the hot water wash indicator light and the 60, 40 degree temperature indicators, while the other indicators are blinking.

Be careful! Do not be confused with error E1, which means something completely different and is related to water intake.

Error explanation

In the device of the Samsung household appliance, there is such a part as the pressostat. In other words, it is a sensor controlling the water level. When the sensor fails, it produces a frequency that does not correspond to the washing cycle, the water is drained and error 1E, 1C, E7 appears on the display. Most often it means a pressostat failure, but at first it is recommended to try to solve the problem yourself.

Your actions when error code 1E appears on the monitor of your Samsung washing machine:

It is quite possible that you will be able to fix this breakdown without calling a master. To do this, do the following:

  • Check the control module.

Disconnect the appliance from the mains and switch it on after no earlier than 5 minutes. Restarting the controller with a high probability will restore the washing machine performance.

  • Check the contacts of pressostat and control board.

Probably one of the connectors on the control board or pressostat is loose. It is necessary to look through all the contacts and correct them if possible.

  • Check the pressostat tube.

You need to see if the sensor tube that connects it to the pressure chamber is disconnected, or if there is a kink in it. It serves to ensure that at the time of filling the tank triggered pressure extraction and the water stopped flowing. In case of a kink or disconnection, error 1E (E7,1C) is sure to be displayed. This can be easily corrected by yourself.

If the above steps did not help, unfortunately, it means that the breakage was more serious and requires the participation of an appliance repair specialist.
