# Samsung ranges

### Four fuels, and they are four different repairs

Gas ranges bring igniters, valves and a flame sensor. Electric radiant tops bring elements and infinite switches. Induction brings a power board, coils and a fan, and fails in ways that look like electronics because they are. Dual fuel puts a gas top over an electric oven and inherits both lists. Samsung sells all four, in slide-in and freestanding, and the fuel decides most of what a visit will look like.

### What Samsung publishes for ranges and wall ovens

Nine entries, and they are unusually specific: the underlined *u* for pan detection, *Cooktop in use* blocking Self Clean, *-dE-* and *-dC-* for the Flex Duo partition, *door* for a door or plunger switch, *tESt* for demo mode, *bAd LinE* for a power connection that is not right, and the three C-codes: C-10 for the self-diagnosis, C-24 for a blocked vent behind the cooktop, and C-F0 for a communication failure between the electronics. Samsung names three induction models where C-F0 is fixed by a software update rather than a technician, and we say so on that page.

### Air Fry, Air Sous Vide and no-preheat

These are convection and element control doing something new, which means they use the same parts and add new ways to notice when one of them has drifted. A range that roasts normally but air-fries badly is telling you something specific about the fan or the element, and it is worth mentioning rather than skipping over.

What Samsung publishes for ranges and wall ovens

Nine entries, and they are unusually specific: the underlined u for pan detection, Cooktop in use blocking Self Clean, -dE- and -dC- for the Flex Duo partition, door for a door or plunger switch, tESt for demo mode, bAd LinE for a power connection that is not right, and the three C-codes: C-10 for the self-diagnosis, C-24 for a blocked vent behind the cooktop, and C-F0 for a communication failure between the electronics.

### The oven shows C-10. Is that serious?

Usually not, and Samsung says so themselves. C-10 belongs to the SmartThings self-diagnosis, and it can appear simply because the oven was very cold or very hot when the test started — a limit of the sensor, not a defect. Samsung's own position is that if C-10 shows during the test and the oven heats normally, it can be ignored. If it turns up outside a test, that is a different conversation.

### It says -dE- or -dC- and my oven will not start.

That is the Flex Duo partition, and it is one of the most satisfying calls we take because it is so often free. The partition has to be pushed fully home, in the third rack position from the top on electric and dual fuel models and the fourth on gas. If the partition is out of the oven entirely, something may be resting against the switch at the back. Samsung also notes that starting to cook before the partition goes in will bring the code up on its own.

### An underlined u appears on my induction top.

It is pan detection: the cookware is the wrong size, the wrong material or in the wrong place on the element. The zone will not heat, and after a minute it switches itself off. Induction needs magnetic cookware and needs it centered; a pan that works on one zone and not another is usually size rather than material.

### Self Clean will not start and it says the cooktop is in use.

Exactly what it says, and it is a safety interlock rather than an error. Every burner and element has to be off before Self Clean will run. It catches people out on gas models where a burner has been left on a very low simmer.
