## Questions about 4C.

### Can I clear 4C myself?

Open the supply valve under the sink fully. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Can my Samsung show 4C even though the kitchen tap runs fine?

Yes, the code also covers a supply with too little pressure or water that is not the temperature the machine wants, not only a supply that is off. Turn the under-sink valve fully open and look behind the dishwasher for a bend in the fill hose.

### Is 4E on my Samsung the same error as 4C?

It is; certain Samsung models display the water supply error as 4E instead. The owner checks do not change, and a code that persists with good supply needs a visit.
