    Haunted by the Error codes “UB”, “UR”

    I purchased this Samsung washing machine, model #WA50R5400AV, exactly 2 years ago for $877. It was more than I wanted to spend but you know what they say, “you get what you pay for”. Ugh… I had high hopes for this expensive thing what can I say. It did work pretty well for a little while. Like countless others have reported, about two weeks ago it began having problems with the load becoming unbalanced. When the load is at the final stretch where it goes into the spin cycle it begins to shake then goes into a violent shaking frenzy and the display shows the code “UB” or “UR”. It then will refill with water to attempt to correct the balance issue and then the unbalanced issue starts all over again. As recommended we would pause the washer rearrange the laundry and allow it to attempt to complete but the cycle would just repeat. So we would have to turn off the unit, remove some soaking wet items, even everything out, turn it back on and turn the dial to ‘spin only’ and keep our fingers and toes crossed that it would finally complete the very necessary spin cycle. We have done all that has been recommended. We tried recalibrating. We make sure to keep the loads smaller. We made sure the washer itself was balanced on even floor with nothing touching it. As recommended we thoroughly checked the tub making sure there wasn’t anything stuck in there like coins, debris or whatever. I contacted Best Buy but the cost of having someone come out to diagnose the issue on top of the potential repair costs was not affordable at this time. So I did some research on what exactly the issue could be. I discovered countless reviews of others with the same exact issue with the exact same Samsung washing machine model. Like countless others before me with the same exact experience I purchased 4 replacement suspension rods. It wasn’t exactly easy but after watching a few DIY videos I was able to replace the suspension rods myself. I was so proud of myself and it seemed to have worked…at first…this is Until today! Once again the washer is reporting the error code “UB”. Back to the drawing board I guess!! Ugh beyond disappointing!!

      We appreciate you sharing your experience with the washer, LisaLisa.

      An Ur or UB code (Unbalanced Load Retry) means the washer is going to try to add more water, try to balance the load, and then try the spin cycle again.

      You can check the link below for the Samsung washing machine information and error codes.
      https://www.samsung.com/us/support/troubleshooting/TSG01002001/#washing-machine-displays-an-error-code

      Whether the washer tub is not spinning, kind of spinning, won't stop spinning, has an unbalanced load error, or just runs way too long, the troubleshooting is the same.
