Samsung’s page for the WA40A3005A reads Top Load Washer ActiveWave™ Agitator Soft-Close Lid | 4.0 cu.ft., which places it in the 4.0 cu. ft. top-load washer line. The WA40A3005A reports fill and drain trouble as 4C and 5C, and because a top-load tub holds far more water than a front-load drum, a 5C on this model is drained before the pump filter or hose is touched.
Codes Samsung itself classes as notices rather than failures – SUd for suds, CL for child lock, dn during a firmware download – are explained on the WA40A3005A and not repaired; the rest are tested with the breaker off and the water shut before any panel is opened.
