E-X2 at a glance
Shown as: E-X2, or EX2 without the hyphen
Samsung’s wording: additional short error
Applies to: current microwaves
Do this first
Begin with a power reset: switch off at the outlet or the breaker. Let the unit dry if it is wet, or hold for 60 seconds if it is dry, then power back on and run the microwave again. Should E-X2 still appear, request service and leave the inside to a technician.
Compare
E-X1 is the open-error twin of this code, and the two are listed side by side. E-82 is a communication short error, and SE is a key short error, so check that the display really reads E-X2 before you reset.
