WA400PJHDW
Samsung WA400PJHDW Top-Load Washer Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Washer not filling with the water taps open
- Water left in the drum after the spin
- Lid switch not registering a closed lid
- Noise or shaking during spin
The WA400PJHDW is an older large-capacity top-load washer with a 4.0 cu. ft. drum. The full model code printed on the label ends in extra characters, and we read the whole code before ordering parts, because the short form covers more than one revision.
This type of washer is normally installed in a laundry room or garage with a hot and cold hookup and a standpipe or sink drain. When one stops filling, we begin outside the machine: the taps, the hose screens, then the inlet valve. For a drum that holds water, we check the drain hose, the pump filter and the pump itself.
Spin trouble on a top-load comes down to balance, leveling, the lid switch and the motor and clutch path under the tub. We run the washer through a loaded cycle to see where it stops. You receive a written price before any work, and the repair carries a 30-day workmanship warranty.

Error codes this model can show
Is this model still repairable?
Yes. It is an older model, so we confirm the full model and serial from the label and match parts to that revision. You get a written price before any work begins, and the repair carries a 30-day workmanship warranty.
Why does my top-load washer stop with water still in the drum?
A blocked drain pump, a kinked hose or an unlevel cabinet are the common causes. We check the drain path first, then the lid switch and the motor drive that moves the tub from wash to spin.
Can a washer this size shake during spin because of the load?
Yes, heavy items in an uneven pile can unbalance it. If it still shakes with a light, even load, we check the legs, the suspension and the tub bearings for wear.
