What bAd LinE tells you
Samsung’s wording is that the power connection is not plugged in properly. In other words, the range is not getting a correct connection.
What to do about it
Before anyone handles the connection, shut off the breaker.
Plug the supply back in properly.
Compare against what the installation manual shows.
Still in doubt? Bring in an installer to check.
Other displays, other fixes
Two different range displays are worth knowing: C-F0, a communication error inside the range, and C-d1, which reports a door lock malfunction.
Range repair in San Francisco
If bAd LinE remains once the connection checks out, call (415) 969-6153 from San Francisco or the Bay Area. Tell us the displayed code and the model number; Samsung range and oven repair gives the overview.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so bAd LinE may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
