PF in particular means the power went away and came back — an outage, a tripped breaker, or somebody unplugging it mid-cycle — and it is a notice rather than a complaint. The rest of the group is about the supply being wrong while it is present. The two things that produce this in a South Florida laundry room are an extension cord and a circuit shared with something large, and neither is a repair to the appliance. Samsung notes that 3E is a voltage error on some models and a motor error on others. ### The other ways Samsung prints this one 9C1 · 9C2 · PF · 3E · 2E · 9E1 · 9E2 · UC · 19C1 · 19C2 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 - Check whether anything else in the house lost power at the same time. - Confirm the machine is plugged into its own outlet with no extension cord and no adapter. - Look at the breaker for the laundry circuit and at what else is on it. - If the supply is proved good and the code returns, the machine’s own power board is what gets measured. ### Where this goes next The job this usually becomes is [diagnostic visit](/services/diagnostic-visit/), 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.
