How to Reset Samsung, LG, Electrolux, and Polytron Washing Machines

How to reset a washing machine is arguably very easy if you know how. Usually this is done if the washing machine experiences an error code.

Or, does the machine just emit an unusual "beep" when the Power or Start button is pressed? Or maybe, the machine won't operate when the buttons are pressed? It indicates that your washing machine needs to be reset (reset). How to reset Samsung, Electrolux, Sharp, and Polytron washing machines is actually quite easy. We only need to press a few key combinations.

However, before you reset the washing machine, make sure that the Samsung washing machine error code or other brands that appear are actually triggered by a malfunction in the circuit or module, not due to external factors.

Some examples of external factors that can cause error codes on a washing machine include:

Overloaded. Overloading the washing machine drum can cause the washing machine to stop.
Make sure the electricity voltage at home is stable. The washing machine requires a stable and sufficient supply of electricity. Using an extension cord can reduce the power supply. Therefore, make sure the washing machine is close enough to the socket.

Water filter clogged. Error in the washing machine can also be caused by the water filter clogged with dirt so that the water does not flow smoothly. In addition, automatic washing machines usually require a certain water pressure. LG washing machines, for example, require water pressure between 14.5 and 116 PSI to operate properly.

Washer tilt level. The washing machine must be placed on a flat surface. If it is placed on a surface that is too inclined, the washing machine will not operate.
