Codes to compare

  • 3C: motor error.
  • 3E1: motor defect.

Samsung washer repair in the Bay Area

For a washer in San Francisco or the Bay Area that holds on to 3CP after a restart, Samsung washer repair is a good starting point and (415) 969-6153 is the number to dial. Keep the model number and the code in front of you.

Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so 3CP may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
