Samsung Dryer Error Codes — Complete Error Code Diagnosis Guide

Eleven Samsung dryer codes are covered, and three of them are about the electricity supply rather than the appliance: 9C1 reports low voltage or the wrong outlet type, FE a power frequency problem, and neither is repaired inside the cabinet. Et is a clogged lint filter, HC is overheating from a blocked vent, and HC2 is gas ignition failure on gas models. oD is overdrying from a dirty moisture sensor, tS is the temperature sensor, 3C is the motor or inverter, dC is the door switch, AE a communication fault, and bE a stuck button.

Airflow is the thread running through the middle of this list, and the guides follow it deliberately: Et and HC describe the same restriction at different severities, and oD is what a lint-glazed moisture sensor produces once softener residue coats the bars. Cleaning is therefore the first repair, not the preliminary. 9C1 and FE send a reader to the outlet, the breaker and the circuit instead, since replacing a board for a supply problem in the wall leaves the fault exactly where it was.

HC2 is where a gas dryer stops being homeowner work: an igniter that no longer draws enough current can leave the valve coils opening onto nothing, which is a gas condition and not a code to reset. HC on any model is describing a vent hot enough to have tripped protection, which is a duct to clear now. Electric machines put 240 volts on the element and terminal block.
