5e means either the filter is clogged or the pump is not working or the hose is plugged. Drain it first, using the hose. Lay the hose down in a bucket and let it drain out, making sure the bucket or dish can hold all the water. If it does not, bring the hose back up, drain the bucket and start again.
Then remove the filter cover and check for obstructions, and when it is clean, run a limited cycle, and check to see if it sounds like the pump is running. If not, the pump needs replacement.
If it is running, and hardly any water is coming out of the drain hose, quickly move the drain hose up and down to use it as a ram to remove any plugs in the drain hose.
It should start coming out as a solid thumb width sized stream.

SOURCE: samsung p1453 will not drain or spin

5E (or SE error) is displayed if the water level frequency detected is 25 KHz or less in the initial phase of the UNB -detecting cycle.

The Water Drain error can be cleared by turning POWER SW OFF and back ON.

Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I'll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using Fixya, and have a nice day.

SOURCE: I have a Maytag MAH-24 Washing Machine showing a 5E error code

You will have to contact Maytag and speak to their service dept and give them your model number. Ask them what a 5E eror is and when you call for service, tell the repair facility what Maytag told you. That will next to eliminate labor cost for Diagnostic.

SOURCE: Samsung SW60ASP washing machine won't spin or drain

5E is a Drain Error Code.

This can be caused by a clogged filter in the washing machine or a blocked drain line in your house. There can be a few other reasons, but these are the most likely.

If you would like to try to repair it yourself, then follow these instructions:

UNPLUG the washing machine. Repeat, UNPLUG the washing machine!!!

Check the filter in the back of the washing machine on the bottom right-hand corner. Place a shallow dish under the filter. Loosen the filter to drain out the water. Remove the filter and clean it out. Look at where you removed the filter and you will see the water pump impeller. Make sure it can move and isn't locked up. Remove any debris from the impeller.

Replace the filter, and plug in the machine. Try a short wash cycle.
Check for leaks around the filter.

Samsung top load washer wont drain and giving error code SCor 5C

Either there is a plug in one of the drain lines or the pump is bad. There is a water pump that pushes the water out of the basket. That pump can go bad, causing the 5C error. There are several videos on Youtube that show how to check this and replace the pump. Search for Samsung Washer Won't Drain.

Samsung front load washing machine 5E Error code

If your Samsung washer is in the middle of a drain cycle and the 5E error code shows on your washers display, it means that the water is not properly draining out of the washer. Something may be clogged, jammed, or blocked and thus preventing water from draining out of the washer.

Dishwasher goes to se display during cycle

That's actually a 5E error code. The 5E error code on most Samsung dishwashers means a drain error. Most often this is caused by a clogged drain hose, or some foreign object getting caught in the drain pump impeller. But it can also mean you have a bad ECS sensor if the drain pump and hose are okay.

Samsung error 5e

The SE (or actually 5E) error code means "drain error". Most often, this is caused by a blocked or clogged drain hose, or something hard getting inside the drain pump that is blocking or impeding the free operation of its impeller. If all that is okay, then you may have a bad ECS sensor.

I have a Samsung front loader. It has been stopping with the error code 5E (filter problem ) for a few months now. Turning the machine off then on again after 20min gets it going again. The fault always...

Hello,
The 5E error mean:
Pump won’t empty - not draining
As usual with these error codes for not draining the first thing to do is check the pump filter but, on Samsung washing machines, the drain pump itself is often faulty. You can find how to fix this problem on youtube, just text it "Samsung washing machine 5E error".

I have 5E showing on my dishwasher. What is does this error mean?

ost common error codes that are caused by installation errors are:
  • 5E. If your dishwasher is displaying error code 5E, It can be caused by a kinked drain hose. A good indication that the drain hose is kinked is excessive water in the bottom of your dishwasher after a cycle has been completed. If your dishwasher is displaying error code 5E, your dishwasher will have to be removed to inspect the drain hose for kinks. If your dishwasher was professionally installed, contact the installer to remove the dishwasher and inspect the drain hose. If you installed the dishwasher your self, the dishwasher will have to be removed for drain hose inspection.
