The tub fills with water between washes. I end up with an OE code almost once a day at random times. Once the OE code comes up the washer goes into a drain mode and it does drain successfully. It will also drain successfully if I start a cycle while there is water in the tub but not enough to cause an OE error (I'm guessing). Thanks for your help
OE error code is an Outlet Error.
That has to do with the drain itself. It can come up when the unit is draining slowly, it has nothing to do with water-level really. I would suggest makign sure that your drain hose is not crimped / crushed / or obstructed first before going onto other problems.
This is the fix for most oE error code causes.

Drain Error OE
Not fully drained out in spite of 5 min. drain operation
The Drain Hose kinked or blocked. Wiring connection is OK? The drain outlet of sump is blocked. The Drain Pump/Motor or circuit is troubled.
Remove the cause of kink or block. Check the wiring connection. Measure the electric resistance of Drain Motor. (20-40 ) Replace the Drain Motor or repair the Circuit

Our unit started displaying code 9E after filling, draining and filling again. At the beginning it was enough just to restart it. Finally this trick didn't work anymore. Before calling service for out of warranty I decided to take the unit out of the cabinet and start it. Of course this didn't fixed the problem. Then i noticed where the water comes in and I took off the panel on the left side bottom.
Under the panel there is a white box that has a floater inside. The floater is pushing a lever that actuates a micro switch. I noticed that the lever wasn't moving as the machine started to fill in with water. The lever was stuck. An easy touch on the lever fixed the problem and the machine started working.
I will put back the washer for now but if it happens again in the next future i'll have to find a more permanent fix.

Hello, Welcome to FixYa.
The 0E code as it pertains to your Samsung is as follows according to the Samsung service manual...
ERROR TYPE - High water level detected.
**before proceeding turn the dishwasher power off via the home breaker panel, or unplug it from the wall if that is possible...most are hard wired to the home electrical...safety first**
The first thing to do is remove the toe panel/kick plate and inspect the base for water. There will likely be water present.
With the aid of a sponge, towels, or a wet-dry shop vacuum, absorb the water from the base, that should restore normal operation...it should be known that if you leave the unit for a few days, the water in the base will evaporate hence appearing as everything is fine again...if any other problem/leak does exist it will return.
If the unit works fine after resetting the power/breaker and soaking up any water present, it can likely be chalked up to a drain back-up or obstruction in the drain hose or pump... (it could mean a faulty drain pump so you'll need to pay close attention the next few times you run it)
If you don't think this is something within your scope of abilities please call an authorized Samsung service center in your area.
Let me know what you find and I'll be glad to help you in whatever manner I can. I do have a service manual for Samsung dishwashers ( essentially all the same as for components and repairs) but you'll need to provide an email address for me to send it via pdf attachment. Good luck.

Macmarkus :)

Take out the top rack and inspect the pipe nipple that the rack slides onto. Make sure that there isn't any debris stuck in it. Next pull the wash arm in question off (it just pulls off) check for debris (toothpicks are the biggest culprits and food particles (sometimes glass so be careful). You should find something in there. The wash pipe goes from the bottom to the top of the unit, if the bottom one works and the top one works then your clog HAS to be in the middle wash arm. The water clearly makes from point A to point C so C has to have an obstruction or the wash arm is sticking and not spinning freely. Try to spin it my have but really inspect it for debris. Good Luck.
The LG error code OE simply means "the pump is blocked". Presumably the water isn't being emptied properly. As with all error codes it is possible that there is a cause other than the exact description in the error code explanation but basically this error means as far as the washing machine is concerned it thinks the water isn't pumping out. A pump, or filter blockage is the most common cause but it could be caused by other faults such as a faulty pump, or even a blockage in the drain hose or somewhere else in the system etc

It turns out that the water was coming back into the dishwasher from the sink drain. The check valve built into the dishwasher end of the hose has failed and therefore allows dirty dishwater to slowly flow back into the dishwasher. The solution was to go to Lowes and buy a check valve (one way) and install that under the sink inline with the dishwasher drain. Just make sure you mount the check valve above the drain exit so that it doesn't spring back while there could be particles in the standing water to impede the check valve from closing fully.
