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.
- Type — FlexWash: TWO washers in one
- The FlexWash is a full-size front-load washer with a SEPARATE smaller top-load washer built into the lid above it. They are two independent machines sharing a cabinet: each has its own drum, controls, water path and error codes, and they run and fail independently. The first step is always to identify whether the upper (top-load) or main (front-load) washer is affected.
- Motor & vibration
- Belt-less Digital Inverter Motor with VRT+ on the main washer; shaking is balance and shipping bolts, not a belt. The main washer has a door gasket needing normal front-load care.
- Smart features
- SmartThings Wi-Fi. A code or fault is meaningless until you know which of the two washers it belongs to — check the display for the upper-vs-main indicator.

Exact questions
Questions that only have an answer for the Samsung FlexWash WV60M9900 washer
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.
One half of my Samsung FlexWash works but the other doesn't.+
That is the nature of the FlexWash — it is two separate washers (a full front-load below, a small top-load above) in one cabinet, so one can fail while the other runs perfectly. Identify which one has the problem and troubleshoot only that washer: the top compartment is a small top-loader (load-size and drain), the main one is a standard front-loader (gasket, drain filter, balance). A shared power or control issue is the only thing that would affect both.
