Error codeE-34
ApplianceMicrowave
Your readout says E-34. Samsung lists that message under the heading over weight error; E34 is the same entry. The listing applies to the present series of Samsung microwaves.
Cut power at the wall socket or the circuit breaker.
Wet unit: let it dry. Dry unit: leave it 60 seconds.
Plug it in again (or flip the breaker back) and test it.
The fault remains if E34 reappears; request service at that point.
When the reset is not enough: San Francisco repair
For a Samsung microwave in San Francisco, look at Samsung microwave repair. Call (415) 969-6153. Keep the model number nearby, along with E-34 and a note of the steps already done.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so E-34 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
