Samsung ww22K6800AW/A2 8C1 or BC1 error


speeder

Recommended Posts

I have a 2 year old samsung ww2k6800AW washer.  it's the 24" front load.

When start button is pushed on any cycle, the drain pump activates for a few seconds, then nothing happens.  no errors, just silence.  water does not start to fill, and tumbler does not move. 

Funny thing is when I first plugged it in (after it was unplugged for about a week) and tested it, it ran through a quick wash cycle ok.  Then when I did a self clean cycle, it stalled with 7 minutes left, and hasn't worked since.

When I enter diagnostic mode (delay 17H), the AS appears for a few seconds then either 8C1 or BC1 (not sure which it is).

I entered a chat with samsung support and they said it is power switch related, and said to unplug and plug back in after 60 seconds.  this did not fix the problem.

I did find something that said it's mems sensor related, but it was for a completely different washer.

thanks for any help.

forgot to mention that I have a service manual for this washer, and it doesn't show a 8C1 error, but there is reference to an 8E1 error which is a mems PBC check detected error

Same issue. 8C1 error code. Replaced MEMS sensor and the control board. Issue continues. Any other thoughts or suggestions. Washing machine used for THREE weeks only

Hi All, I think I'm also getting the same error as OP (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wybr8PLrkdQ_KHWUiIcgS70CZBmTFkiC/view?usp=sharing). Not sure if it's a bC1 or 8C1 error code.

I am having the same issue I replaced the meme sensor and the user interface with no luck. Please help need to get this fix ASAP. Could it be a wire harness problem.

I just had a front load with a problem that during a rinse and spin it stops at 11 min on the display. Under 17h delay and press pause for 7 to 10 seconds 8C1 pops up. This leads me to the MEMs sensor. i ohmed all the wires in the harnes to the main board, they all ohmed out ok. so i ordered a sensor, and will see if that fixes it.

For those of you haveint the same issue after replacing the parts, you may just have a broken wire in your harness. You must verify the wires are good!

I think there is a video on youtube with the fix. The wiring harness for the sensor? was shorting out because it got exposed. How they ran it from the factor was pinched between a board and the frame.

Hey guys, has anybody been able to resolve their 8c1 error code?

I had previously tried wrapping the pinched area of the wiring harness in electrical tape and then using pliers to prevent the pinch from occurring, but when I load clothes into the washer, I still get the error code. No error code when testing the washer without clothes in it, interestingly. I have to de-stack it and take a look inside to see if I can figure out what's going on. May have to do some more in-depth splicing of the wiring harness, or outright replace it.

"Frame"  is that the plastic PCB frame or elsewhere?
