A Samsung washer in Canton, OH wasn’t washing thoroughly and leaking at times. Our diagnosis revealed a completely obstructed coin trap causing drainage issues, plus some leveling and electrical connection problems that needed attention.
The Problem
The customer reported their Samsung washer was not washing thoroughly, leaking at times, and requested general service on both washing machines in their home.
Diagnosis
I found the coin trap on the wash machine was obstructed completely. This was causing a long drain scenario. The washing machine also needed re-leveling, and the power cord was a little bit loose in the upper outlet it plugged into. I did not really see evidence of water leakage during my inspection.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: No parts needed
- Work performed: Cleaned completely obstructed coin trap, re-leveled the washing machine, reinstalled power cord in lower outlet
- Result: Machine is now draining properly with improved stability and secure electrical connection
Is It Worth Repairing?
Samsung washers like this WF56H9-100AG/A2 are well-built front-load units that typically provide years of reliable service when properly maintained. Since this repair required only cleaning and adjustments with no parts replacement, it’s definitely worth keeping this machine running.
Maintenance Tips for Samsung Washers
- Check and clean the coin trap regularly to prevent drainage blockages
- Ensure the washer stays properly leveled to prevent excessive vibration and wear
- Keep electrical connections secure and inspect power cords periodically
