Is your Samsung dishwasher showing Error Code E02? That blinking code usually appears just when you’re ready to relax, and now your kitchen’s filled with standing water. Don’t worry—you’re not alone. Many homeowners see this error and wonder if they can handle it themselves or if it’s time to call for help. Here’s a clear guide on what Error Code E02 means, how to troubleshoot it on your own, and when to call the pros for a same-day, emergency repair.
Error E02 is a water drain error, indicating that your dishwasher isn’t able to remove the used water from the tub. Typically, this happens when there’s a clog in the drain system, or the drain pump is failing.
Common causes include:
Before calling a technician, here are a few things you can check safely:
Make sure the drain hose isn’t twisted, kinked, or clogged. Disconnect it and flush it with water to ensure it’s clear.
Open the bottom of the dishwasher and remove any gunk, food particles, or debris that may be clogging the filters or drain area.
After clearing everything, try running a quick wash to see if the error clears. If it reappears, it’s likely a mechanical issue with the pump or internal components.
Tip: If you hear humming or grinding but no water draining, your drain pump may be stuck or damaged.
If the above steps didn’t solve the issue, it’s time to call a professional. Samsung dishwashers are reliable but complex, and working on their internals without the right tools or experience can lead to bigger issues.
