Samsung Washer Repair – Minerva, OH (WA45M7050/A4 02)

A Samsung washer in Minerva wasn’t filling with water, and the customer also noticed the drum seemed loose. After inspection, we found the cold water inlet screen was plugged with water softener resin from a faulty new water softener system.

The Problem

The customer reported water not going into machine and that the drum seems loose. They had already cleaned hot and cold water screens but the washer still wouldn’t fill properly.

The cold water inlet screen was plugged with water softener resin. The rest of the machine was cycling properly. The customer had a plumber from Louisville install a new water softener and they have are having ongoing issues with the softener. It’s still not working properly and releasing softener resin into the household plumbing system.
