Samsung Washer LC Code: Check for Water Leaks
Short answer: On the Samsung WF45T6000A* washer, LC means "check for water leaks." Power the washer off and check the drain system for leaks. The washer may drain itself and lock the controls briefly. Power it on again once the leak is resolved.
What LC means
Samsung’s WF45T6000A* manual says LC means to check for water leaks. It directs the owner to power off and check the drain system for leaks; depending on the model, the washer may drain automatically and temporarily disable the controls.
Primary references: Samsung WF45T6000A* user manual and Samsung washer information-code support.
Safe checks
- Power off the washer. If water is near the plug or outlet, do not touch it; isolate power safely and get qualified help.
- Look at the visible supply-hose connections, door seal and drain-hose route for fresh water. Do not pull the appliance out while it is full or stacked.
- Wipe only accessible moisture, correct a visibly loose external connection only if the manual permits, and power on after the leak has stopped.
- If LC returns or water is coming from inside the cabinet, close the water supply and arrange service.
When to stop
Never run a leaking washer to see whether the code clears. A recurring leak can damage flooring and may involve internal hoses or seals.
Parts You Might Need
- Samsung washer supply hoses matched to the model and connection
- Absorbent leak-inspection towels for accessible floor checks
