samsung washer faulty code?

Samsung washing machine,Mod.:WA17R3Q3DWYOR SHOWS E-1 ON DISPLAY.
RAFAEL ELIAS M., October 2008
e1 - not filling in allocated time.

Check if water is entering the detergent dispenser?
if not the water supply is blocked.
Check for kinks in the water hoses - if they're ok turn off the hose taps, remove hoses and check the plastic filters in the valve inlet connection. You will need a pair of thin pliers to grip the filter tab and pull it out. Clean any debris off with a toothbrush, rinse and reinstall in valve. Could be a faulty solenoid valve.

If water is getting into the drum, check the pressure switch -the system that determines correct water level in the drum. Its a round item about 3 inches across with several wires connected, it sits under the top cover. Its an air operated switch which tells the machine water has reached the correct level. Disconnect the thin rubber pipe from the switch and blow down through it to clear any blockage. Switch itself may be faulty but its more likely the pressure pipe is blocked.
