Samsung Washer SUd Code: Too Many Suds
Updated
Short answer
What SUd (Sd, 5Ud) means
In Samsung's words, condensed: the washer has detected an over-sudsing condition and stops for a short time to let suds dissipate, then continues (Samsung).
What Samsung says to try
- Let the cycle continue; it resumes automatically.
- Use less detergent, and HE detergent in a high-efficiency washer.
- Run an empty rinse if suds remain.
Unplug the appliance or switch off its breaker before reaching into any part of it. Codes and steps vary by model, so check your manual too.
If the code comes back
Samsung says this code does not indicate service is needed; it is caused by incorrect use of detergent. No repair. If suds also trigger leak codes, see the LE guide. (Samsung, washing machine information and error codes)
