Try unplugging the unit for a few minutes. Then plug back in. If not try the Power button. I have an SE code (drainage problem) and my machine stops running altogether.
You are barking up the wrong tree. Here is the real fix for the LE problem.First disconnect all power ( power supply, circuit breaker, wiring etc) to the machine. Disconnect all tubing to the machine ( drainage pipe and braided hose feed) Then you need to take out the dishwasher, turn it over and then remove the large white sensor tray that will expose the leakage sensor held on by 2 screws. Remove the screws and dry up the sensor tips (4) with a dry towel and dry up the tray all around as well. Replace the tray and re connect all tubing and power. You're problem should be solved and you just saved yourself a pile of money in service repair bill.
M.D.
Had the same problem with LE and 5E codes, while checking the drain hoses for obstructions 5E it turns out if you leak any water into the LE sensor pan you are stuck. So I followed diber3's post and was also able to remove the drain hose connected to the pump to check for obstructions. There I found a piece of plastic from the upper dish rack adjuster preventing water from exiting the dishwasher SE code. Then I took a hairdryer to the LE sensors to dry them out before reassembly. Back up and running in less than 1 hr nice work diber3!
Thank you, thank you, diber3!! I did what you said and it worked like a charm. That saved me at least $300, which is what the Samsung repair service told me it would cost to replace the sump, which is what they said was wrong. Thank goodness I did my own research and found your post!

Philsner thank you for that advise, worked perfectly.
Saved us couple hundred dollars.
Thank you once again
Just dealt with a Samsung dishwasher LE error code and will tell you how I cleared it. LE means "kinked water supply line" but there are other things that can cause this code. In our case, there was a blockage of the pump that drives the water jets. This fooled the unit into thinking it didn't have water (because it couldn't pump water), hence the LE error code. To fix this, I removed the dish racks and unscrewed the bottom jet arm. Looks like a flying saucer with a long central wing (2 short screws). Then I unscrewed the main body of the unit beneath (8 long screws and 1 short screw). Under this I found a broken knife that was jamming up the macerate blade, and hence the pump. Reverse process to install.
