Which units this covers, and how to tell yours is one of them
Every answer below is scoped to these model identifiers. A neighbouring model in the same line can use a different part, a different reset sequence or a different radio, so matching the identifier before following a procedure is the step that decides whether the rest of the page applies to you.

- DW80N3030*
- What that covers
- Samsung dishwasher; identify Waterwall/Linear Wash and exact display style before code interpretation.
Published specification
What is true of this model and changes how you fix it
These are the properties that decide which procedure applies. Each is read from the manufacturer’s own published figures for this model, not carried over from a sibling that shares its retail name.
- Drying — heated dry (entry)
- An entry Samsung dishwasher with basic heated drying and typically no AutoRelease auto-open door — so it relies more on heat and rinse aid, and plastics may stay damp. Use rinse aid and open the door after the cycle to help.
- Wash & filter
- Standard wash with adjustable racks (often no 3rd rack at this tier). A manual filter at the tub floor must be cleaned periodically — the top cause of poor cleaning and odour.
- Codes
- LC = leak sensor; drain codes point to the filter and drain hose.

Exact questions
Questions that only have an answer for the Samsung DW80N3030 dishwasher
Each answer below uses this model’s own published figures. The same question asked about a different model in the line has a different answer, which is why it is answered here rather than on a general page.
Does the Samsung DW80N3030 have the auto-open door for drying?+
No — the entry DW80N3030 uses basic heated drying and typically does not have the AutoRelease auto-open door that the higher Samsung models use. So drying depends more on heat and rinse aid, and plastics can stay damp. Keep the rinse-aid tank filled, select a heated-dry/Sanitize option if available, and crack the door open after the cycle to let the moisture escape.
