# Samsung dryer error code bE

### What bE means on this make

A stuck button locks out the whole panel, so the dryer looks dead while being healthy. Moisture behind the membrane is the usual cause in a laundry room, particularly one that shares a wall with a bathroom.

### The other ways Samsung prints this one

bE · bE2 · bC2 · 6E · 6E2 · 6C2

Samsung publishes a condition and then every string that can stand for it, and which one your machine shows depends on the panel it was built with. They mean the same thing and they are one page here, so whichever of them you searched for, this is the right page.

### Where this appears, and why not to clear it

On the appliance’s own display. Samsung reports errors two ways: machines with a digital display show a code, and the same machines without one blink their cycle lights instead. Both are published by the maker and both are on this site. Photograph what the panel shows before cutting the power — Samsung asks for this itself on its refrigerator and dishwasher pages, and it is the one thing that makes a first visit more useful. A code that has been reset is information a technician no longer has.

### What to do about it

- Power the dryer off at the wall.
- Touch and release each button in turn, working it to all edges before letting go.
- Power it back on and try the panel.
- If a button is damaged or the code returns at once, the panel is the repair.

### Where this goes next

The job this usually becomes is [appliance control board repair](/services/appliance-control-board-repair/), and that page carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes, reminders and settings rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 506-1256](tel:+13055061256) and describe what the panel is doing before booking anything.
