Samsung washing machine does not spin at all
If your washer does not spin at all, it's possible that it needs service due to a motor issue. However, this can also be caused by a drain issue, and sometimes attempting Calibration mode can kick start the spin function back into working again, especially after resolving the drain issue first.

Samsung washing machine buttons won't work
If your washer won't start, the buttons won't work, or the control knob won't select a different cycle, you probably have Child Lock turned on. If your Child Lock icon is lit or flashing, this confirms it. Turning Child Lock off will usually take care of your problem.

Whether your washer will not turn on or turns off by itself, stops unexpectedly, or won't turn off, it's likely due to an issue with the washing machine's power cord or its electrical connection to your home's power grid.
