Why Samsung WA5471AB won't start?
- R
  Robert HernandezSep 1, 2025
  If your Samsung Washer won't start, make sure the door is completely closed and that the appliance is properly plugged into a working outlet. Also, ensure the water source faucets are fully open and that you've pressed the Start/Pause button. It's also worth checking that the Child Lock feature isn't activated. If none of these steps work, inspect the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Note that before the washer starts filling, it will make clicking noises as it checks the door lock and performs a quick drain.

  Jennifer LeSep 3, 2025
  If your laundry load is excessively wet after the wash cycle, try these solutions: * Select the High or Extra High spin speed option. * Use high-efficiency detergent to minimize over-sudsing. Small loads (one or two items) can cause unbalancing, preventing complete spinning.

Why is my Samsung Washer vibrating too much?
- S
  Stephanie McgeeSep 5, 2025
  Excessive vibration or noise in your Samsung Washer can occur if the appliance isn't set on a level surface. Ensure the shipping bolts have been removed from the unit. Also, check that the washer isn't touching any surrounding objects and that the laundry load inside is balanced properly.

What to do if Samsung WA5471AB stops mid cycle?
- T
  Terry BookerSep 6, 2025
  If your Samsung Washer stops during a cycle, ensure it's plugged into a live electrical outlet and check the fuse or reset the circuit breaker. Verify the door is fully closed and press the Start/Pause button; the washer won't spin with an open door. Note that the washer makes clicking noises and does a quick drain before filling. There may also be a pause or soak period in the cycle, so allow some time. Lastly, inspect the inlet hose screens for obstructions and clean them if necessary.
