What a Samsung Dishwasher Technician Deals With
Samsung requires the drain hose to have an air gap or high loop, and a unit sitting on its own drain hose is the most common cause of drain trouble after installation. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is not draining
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Dishwasher noise. For humming, buzzing or grinding, clean the drain filter and drain pump opening first, since something caught in the pump is the usual cause. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is too noisy
- Dishwasher leaking. Confirm it is a real leak by wiping up and running a new cycle, then turn off power and inspect the water supply hose, drain hose connection and door seal. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is leaking or has a leakage error code
