Samsung Dishwasher HC1 Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code HC1
Appliance Dishwasher

What HC1 looks like

On a current Samsung dishwasher, HC1 means a cycle can stall midway or fail to reach its end.

Two checks from the manual

  • Check that the inlet water is not far too hot.
  • Clear the filters, which lets water move around the tub.

That is all the owner guidance there is. A technician should inspect the dishwasher if HC1 remains.

Other heat-related codes

  • HC: the interior is too hot
  • HE: the temperature is detected incorrectly
  • HC4: hot air at the door vent

Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so HC1 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
