What Do These Error Codes Mean?

In a nutshell, Error Code E11/E19/E32/E33 all indicate issues with the water wall motor or sensor. The water wall is that unique sweeping bar at the bottom of your Samsung dishwasher—its job is to make sure every dish gets an even spray. When it stops moving or senses a problem, the dishwasher lets you know via these codes.

• E11: Water wall position sensor error
• E19: Water wall diverter error
• E32/E33: Water wall motor or sensor problem

DIY Steps: How to Troubleshoot the Water Wall Error

Let’s face it—sometimes a quick fix is possible, and it feels good to handle things on your own. Here are some simple steps that might get your dishwasher back in action:

1. Turn Off and Unplug
   Safety first: always power off your appliance before poking around.
2. Check for Blockages
   Open the dishwasher and remove the lower rack. Inspect the water wall spray bar for any utensils, food particles, or debris that might be jamming its movement.
3. Reset the Dishwasher
   Sometimes, all your Samsung needs is a little breather. Plug the unit back in after a few minutes and run a short cycle.
4. Inspect the Water Wall Bar
   Make sure the bar isn’t dislodged or off its track. If it seems stuck, carefully reposition it.
5. Listen for Unusual Noises
   A grinding or clicking sound could point to a motor or gear issue—which might be a bit more complicated to fix on your own.
