WA50K8600AV Samsung Washer - Instructions

The refrigerator had the above code and when I check on YouTube, it explained that the defrosting was not working properly. It was taking more than 80 minutes to defrost. I ordered the Temperature Sensor first and it was not the issue. I also ordered the Defrost Temperature fuse or the Thermistor. I had to defrost the refrigerator first by using a portable heater to get it done quickly. (See Youtube on how to get to the Defrosting Unit inside the freezer). The Thermistor was the wrong part. I called the Partselect and explained that the part with the heating element is one piece. (Heating Coil Thermistor or Heating Coil). By replacing that piece solved the Error Code issue. I listened to Youtube for the instructions on how to replace the Heater Coil. So if you see the Error Code dH F, you need to replace the Heating Coil, which comes in
one piece and sits on the bottom of the Defrost Element.

Though I could hear and feel the drain pump running, the washer would not drain. This model does not have a filter for the drain pump. I lowered the discharge hose from the stand up pipe on the wall, and lowered it to the floor. Water ran right out, so no blockage in the drain system. After removing the inlet and outlet hoses to the pump, a quick inspection showed the impeller on the motor was off the shaft and flopping around. Bingo, motor runs but cant pump.
Ordered from Partselect and received in ONE DAY. I really didn't want to go back to it that soon, but they certainly did their part. Ha. Thank you all. Greg

Removed old bucket and placed new one In its place. New one is actually better than OEM part because it has an arm than breaks up any ice that may jam.

Went to YouTube video and followed instructions.

Hardest part was making sure water from hose does not flood floor while taking it off from water pump and letting water drain in bucket.

Turn off the power to the refrigerator. Remove the back plate. Unplug the fan motor. Remove the fan housing and pull the fan blade from the motor. Replace the motor by removing 4 screws. Replace with the new motor and reinstall the fan blades. Secure the fan housing, plug the fan motor, and screw on the back panel. Plug and go!

I call Part Select and spoke with Shawn in March ,2023 ,i told him what the washer had the problem , Shawn explained to me and order 4 Suspension Rod for me , we changed them after received it and works perfect.
I had ordered the part for our refrigerator and another washer before, when we changed the parts , it worked perfect , that is why i order the parts for our appliance when we need from PARTS SELECT

All Representative are very helpful , thank you !

Removed ice dispenser and display with small screwdriver from front of the fridge. Pried out the whole piece slowly. This exposed the motor that activates the chute. Plugged in the new motor before any removal to verify the motor was the problem. When it worked, removed old and installed new. 3 screws. Piece of cake.

Unscrewed what remained from broken door stop, aligned new one, screwed it in. Done!

The cap was easily replaced by hand and pops right in place.

Shut off water and electrical supply to appliance, take water supply hoses off to allow for proper access to back of machine.
Take off back panels of appliance. Disconnect two hoses from pump. Take out two screws which attach pump to washer body. Detach wiring which connects pump to control unit ( that takes a little time). Install pump in designated location, connect hoses, connect wiring to control unit, connect appliance to powere source, test run to make sure everything works properly, make final detailed wire connection Pump to control unit, install back panels, Connect water supply hoses .....and be proud of yourself!

just popped the new one in, it took all of 3 seconds....the worst part was that the part was all Plastic and the replacement part cost close to $70 including Shipping. the part was no bigger than the Cap on a LG bottle of Orange Juice.....Ridiculous..

Uncoupled the old connector, replaced with new connector and attached supply line. Repair easy with right part, prior to ordering the right part I had tried a compression fitting and it still leaked. U-tube and others demonstrating repair assured me I was on the right path.

I called LG and followed the instructions given over the phone. The instructions couldn't have been simpler. Disconnect the appliance for several hours and then connect again. I disconnected the appliance overnight, cleaned out the freezer, and reconnected it. Problem solved. Did not need to call a repairman and did not use the clips.

Remove push plate for water/ice maker switch, remove 2 screws and 2 wires for switch. Replace with new.
