Hey everyone. First time posting here, I need some help. My washer stopped filling with water today. I noticed a distinct electrical burning smell. I checked the resistance across each solenoid in the fill valve, all were around 1100-1200. I then checked the power being supplied to each solenoid. It would spike to ~14V then drop to 1-2V on each one. Ant ideas what may cause this low voltage? And can I just replace a switch, or does it need to be the whole pcb?

Thanks everyone!

Unfortunately almost all of us who respond on this Forum (we are volunteers) do not have much experience with Samsung. If the model is like most washers the voltage to the water inlet solenoids should be 110-120v, so if you are not getting that the problem may be somewhere in the electrical system.

You need to check a wiring diagram or some other source to confirm that voltage, but if so it sounds like the control unit is the problem.
