Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: Washing machine door won't unlock?

Wed, 02 Aug 2023 12:09:21 -0700

My washing machine cycle came to an end. After 3 minutes it is supposed to unlock, but it didnt. It has drained all the water out, so that's not a problem. I turned the power off on the wall, and it still wouldnt unlock. How can I get my wet washing out?

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: loud knocking on spin cycle

Mon, 01 Sep 2025 12:26:20 -0700

Hello. When our samsung front load washer gets to the spin cycle it sounds like horses are galloping through the laundry room. It is under warranty. They replaced shocks....just as bad or maybe even worse. If you are in the room it's so loud you can not hear a person talk beside you. I read a few of the other questions of similar nature on here but didn't see on where shocks had already been replaced and checked that not clothing or foreign objects in machine. I video recorded the sound when I turn drum by hand. The bang happens when you move the drum so simple to reproduce the noise. The tech seemed stumped so I thought I'd ask professionals online. Thank you for any ideas.

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: Door ERROR during wash - interlock fault?

Thu, 22 Jan 2026 12:14:05 -0700

About a year ago (almost to the day!!!), I had a load of washing that I couldn't get out of my washer because the door wouldn't open. Upon investigation I found that the door interlock has burnt out. I'm not sure what the piece is called that connects to the interlock (connector block?), but it was badly burnt and slightly melted, although the 3 metal contacts were still intact. Some of the interlock was damaged too, so I bought a new interlock and fit it to the burnt connector and it has been fine since. But this evening during a wash, my machine started beeping to say there was a door error - that it wasn't closed. When I pushed on the door, I heard a buzzing noise and the lock icon was shown on the display, but when I tried to rerun the wash, it said the same error. I'm not sure what to do? Do I buy a new interlock, or is the connector the problem - if so are these replaceable too, or does it mean I need a new machine? :(

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: Pourquoi j'ai de l'eau qui coule du bac de savon-adoucissant

Sat, 22 Mar 2025 05:39:43 -0700

Lorsque la machine charge l’eau, l’eau déborde par le bac de savon-adoucissant
Au début du cycle, et avant le rinçage

Google translate:

Why do I have water flowing from the softener soap tub.

When the machine loads the water, the water overflows through the soap-softener tank At the start of the cycle, and before rinsing

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: Washing machine is unblanaced

Tue, 01 Oct 2019 03:11:47 -0700

My washing was doing fine until I overloaded it. It makes a load banging noise now. I turned the drum inside and as it turns 360 it makes a clunk noise and feels like it jumps out and back in again on the turn. I hope that makes sense. It makes a loud noise when it washes and spins since i overloaded it.

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: Samsung front load power shut down and door locked

Tue, 11 Jun 2024 07:08:30 -0700

My Samsung front load washer power shut down and the door is locked. I tried the outlet and no response. I can’t even get the model number since the door is locked . I don’t know if this will help but the Samsung washer is a super speed power foam stem VRTplus . I never had issues with it and it suddenly stop while the machine was running.

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: washing machine doesn’t work, only hums

Sun, 05 Jul 2020 00:13:12 -0700

My washing machine doesnt work, has a humming sound when I start a washing cycle. But it does work on Rinse and spin cycle. The machine fills water too during spin and rinse cycle. Anyone knows what’s going on? I’m debating on whether to repair or replace. The machine is out of warranty.

Samsung B1445A Washing Machine: Drain Pump Stopped working, Replaced, worked for one load, broke

Sat, 17 Aug 2019 17:30:09 -0700

It seemed like a clear-cut issue, that the machine was not draining, and hose was not clogged. I purchased a new drain pump motor and replaced it. It worked fine for one load of laundry and now has the same issue: the washer doesn’t drain and stops before the rinse cycle.

Would greatly appreciate any advice.
