A Samsung dishwasher on Stratford Ave NW in Massillon, OH was making terrible noise and running intermittently with lights going off and showing an LC error. Our diagnosis revealed a faulty overfill sensor that was preventing normal operation and causing the erratic behavior.
The Problem
The customer reported their dishwasher was making terrible noise and keeps running intermittently with the lights going off. The unit was displaying an LC error code.
Diagnosis
The unit had a small amount of water in the drip pan, though this did not appear to be from an ongoing leak. We cleared the water and found the unit would not run unless the water sensor was bypassed, indicating a failed overfill sensor.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: DD94-01062A — overfill sensor
- Work performed: Replaced sensor after clearing water from drip pan
- Result: Unit runs normally with all functions restored
Is It Worth Repairing?
This Samsung DW80K7050US is a mid-range model that’s worth repairing when components like sensors fail. Samsung dishwashers generally have good longevity, and an overfill sensor replacement is a straightforward repair that restores full functionality. The investment makes sense for this appliance.
Maintenance Tips for Samsung Dishwashers
- Check and clean the door seals regularly to prevent water from reaching sensors
- Run cleaning cycles monthly to prevent buildup that can affect sensor operation
- Inspect the bottom of the tub periodically for standing water that could trigger overfill protection
