Samsung Washing Machine Error Code UE – Unbalanced Load

The UE error code on your Samsung washing machine stands for “Unbalanced Load.” It’s one of the more common issues people run into, and thankfully, in many cases, it’s something you can fix yourself, without calling a technician. But if your washer keeps showing this code after trying the basic fixes, it may be time to contact a local washer repair service.

Here’s a quick guide to help you troubleshoot the issue, understand what causes it, and know when it’s best to reach out for professional help.

What Causes the UE Error Code?

The UE error means your washing machine can’t spin properly due to an unbalanced load. This can happen when:

• The laundry inside is distributed unevenly.
• You’re washing one bulky item (like a blanket) without anything else to balance it.
• The washer isn’t level on the floor.
• Suspension or drum components are worn out.

How to Fix It Yourself

Before calling for service, try these steps:

1. Rebalance the Load

Open the washer and redistribute your laundry evenly around the drum. If you’re washing one big item, add a few towels or similar-sized pieces to help balance the weight.

2. Check for Level

Use a level tool or even a phone app to check if your washing machine is sitting flat on the floor. Adjust the feet if needed—this small step can prevent big spinning problems.

3. Reduce Load Size

Overloading or underloading can both cause problems. Try removing or adding items so the load is balanced, and run the spin cycle again.

4. Use the Right Cycle

Make sure you’re using the appropriate cycle for the items you’re washing. Delicate or wool cycles, for example, might not spin as aggressively.

If you’ve tried all these and the error keeps coming back, it may point to mechanical wear or a sensor issue that needs a technician’s help.
