What a 7C display tells you
Seeing 7C means the dishwasher started to drive the bar, gave up after a moment and left it still. With the bar stuck, nothing gets sprayed, and the dishes come out extremely poorly cleaned. Samsung lists the code for current models that have a digital display.
Next move
Samsung gives owners nothing to reset or inspect for this code. Its only instruction is to contact Samsung Support so that someone can examine the machine.
Nearby codes worth knowing
7E: the Waterwall reflector cannot move properly, a close number
6C1: the detergent dispenser motor behaves abnormally
5C2: the drain pump stalls or only runs for a short time

Plain language
What this code means
The spray bar begins to move for a moment and then halts, so the dishwasher gives no spray action.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
