7.64 -> Hi, I'm Mat
from eSpares.
9.758 -> In this video, I'll show
you what to do
11.52 -> if your Samsung ecobubble
washing machine
14.457 -> is displaying
the error code 5C or 5E.
18.983 -> Error codes usually appear
on your washing machine's display
22.531 -> and indicate that there is
a fault with your appliance.
26.12 -> This particular error code means
that there is a water draining issue.
30.034 -> Here we will run
through some checks
32.021 -> to help you find out
what is causing the issue
34.253 -> and how to fix it.
36.242 -> Before carrying out any work
37.707 -> make sure your
washing machine is turned off
40.369 -> and fully disconnected
from the mains.
44.436 -> For this repair, you'll need to
turn off the water supply to the machine
48.604 -> and disconnect
the water inlet pipe as well.
51.62 -> The tools you'll need
are a Phillips screwdriver
55.045 -> a pair of pliers
and a large towel.
59.326 -> The first thing to check
is the pump filter
62.098 -> which is the
part of the machine
63.997 -> that catches debris
during a wash cycle
66.226 -> such as coins, hair grips
and screws.
69.147 -> If it becomes blocked
70.168 -> water will not be able to pass
through and get to the pump.
73.807 -> Now there can be a lot of water
stored down here in the machine
77.178 -> so I put a towel down to catch any.
79.635 -> But first what I'll do
81.72 -> is use the emergency drain hose
85.739 -> open that up and then
pour that into a bucket
89.019 -> and that should take out
most of the water.
91.801 -> You can then remove
the filter to check
97.398 -> if there's any
damage or blockage.
100.134 -> If it is damaged the filter
will need to be replaced.
105.577 -> The next thing to check
is the pump impeller
108.122 -> and you can see it
at the back there.
110.525 -> To do this move the blade with your
fingers to ensure that it moves freely.
114.763 -> If there is any debris
blocking its movement
116.651 -> then remove the obstruction.
118.487 -> If the impeller has actually
come away from the pump
121.438 -> then a new pump
will need to be fitted.
125.293 -> The next thing to check
is the drain hose.
127.348 -> Make sure there's no kinks
in the hose
130.12 -> stopping water from draining away
from the machine.
133.339 -> If you've checked the hose
the filter and the impeller
136.564 -> and they're all fine
137.903 -> it's likely to be a problem
with the drain pump
140.764 -> and I'll show you
how to fit a new one now.
144.36 -> To remove
the faulty drain pump
145.84 -> I need to remove
the bottom panel
147.541 -> by undoing the five screws
that hold it in place.
150.978 -> Now I've lent the machine down
onto its front.
153.67 -> If you're doing this
on a hard floor
155.595 -> make sure you put
a towel down to protect the door.
158.067 -> But also to collect any water
159.929 -> that may come out of the
drain pump when it's removed.
163.641 -> Now I can use my Phillips screwdriver
to remove the bottom panel.
175.511 -> With the bottom panel removed
177.522 -> here we can see
the drain pump.
181.056 -> To remove the drain pump
182.392 -> simply take out
the electrical connections
184.547 -> and undo the three screws
using your Phillips screwdriver.
216.643 -> Before we begin
217.843 -> you're going to need
to find a drain pump
220.004 -> suitable for your make
and model of washing machine.
223.491 -> To do that you'll need to find
the model number for your appliance.
227.086 -> You can see our video here.
229.514 -> Which tells you
exactly how to find
231.338 -> the model number
of your washing machine.
234.278 -> You can also find a link in
the description below to find your drain pump.
239.615 -> You can now fit
your new drain pump.
243.049 -> Before I fit it
it's just worth mentioning
244.876 -> that make sure
on your new pump
247.142 -> that this seal
around the impeller here
250.347 -> comes with the new pump.
252.472 -> Sometimes it doesn't
253.732 -> so if it doesn't you're going to
have to take it off the old one
255.843 -> and put it around
the new one.
258.641 -> Now I can screw it into place and
reconnect the electrical connections.
284.283 -> With the new drain pump in place.
286.929 -> Refit the bottom panel
289.761 -> using the five screws
you removed earlier.
293.897 -> You can then put the machine
back into its upright position
299.012 -> and do get help to do so
if it's too heavy for you.
312.909 -> We hope this has helped
314.321 -> to sort your drainage problem
on your washing machine
317.369 -> and the error code
has now disappeared.
320.72 -> It's a good idea to give your
washing machine a very thorough clean
324.923 -> and you can see our video here
326.929 -> which is a step-by-step guide
