Samsung SW65V5 won't fill with water. No filling noise.
Samsung SW65V5 suddenly stopped working. No change in supply water pressure. Checked filters and cleaned them. No clogs.
When I start a program, the washing machine does nothing, doesn't make any filling noises or any noise at all.It doesn't show any error code initially, then after about 10 minutes displays code 4E.

Samsung SW65V5 not filling, eventually showing 4E
- The problem
- The Samsung SW65V5 stopped starting a wash properly and made no filling noise or any other noise when a programme was selected. The water supply pressure had not changed. The inlet filters were checked and cleaned, and no blockage was found. After about 10 minutes the machine displayed fault code 4E.
- Likely cause
- The accepted reply identified 4E as a fill timeout fault, meaning the water level did not rise within the allowed time. As the poster reported no blockage up to the valve filter, an electrical fault was considered likely, but this was not confirmed.
- What fixed it
- Basic fill checks were recommended, including confirming water runs properly through the hoses. As no simple blockage was found and the poster did not want to investigate electrics, the next step was to arrange a technician visit. The exact repair was not confirmed.
- Checks to try
- Checked and cleaned filters
- No clogs found
- Water supply pressure reported unchanged
- Advised to check water is running properly through the hoses
Safety: Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Samsung error 4E is time out on fill. It allows 2 minutes and if the water level hasn't risen in that time it times out with the error code. It's strange that yours takes 10 minutes. Have you checked water is running ok through the hoses? Do all the basic fault checking described here Washing machine won’t fill with water but if it isn't anything simple might need an engineer to trace it.

Thanks. I read the link you mentioned. From what I understand, since there isn't a blockage anywhere up-to the valve filter, it must be an electrical malfunction. I will call a technician to fix that (because I hate electrical stuff).
