Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Samsung's own guidance for OC on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Stop the cycle and note which program was running when the code appeared.

02

Work through Samsung's drain and overflow checks for your model, which the error page links to.

03

If the tub keeps overfilling, book a visit.

Still there?

It usually turns into fill and water valve repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

Do not read the zero in 0C as the letter O or the other way round. OC, 0C and oE are the same over-level error.

Questions
about OC.

Can I clear OC myself?
Stop the cycle and note which program was running when the code appeared. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Is 0C written with a zero a different code from OC on my Samsung?
No, Samsung uses OC, 0C and oE for one and the same problem: too much water in the tub. The shape of the first character depends only on the display.
What is worth noting down when OC shows on a Samsung?
Record the program that was running at the moment the code appeared, since that helps whoever looks at it. Samsung's error page links to drain and overflow checks for each model, and a tub that keeps overfilling needs service.

Back to your everyday

Still showing OC?

Book with the characters exactly as shown, the full model number, and whether any water is on the floor — for a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
