Why Samsung washer won't start even though pressing Start button can be due to several common reasons including door not fully closed and latched, Child Lock enabled, delay start activated, power issue, control board frozen, or error code preventing start. First check door, front load door must click and lock, if not latched washer will not start and may show DC or dE error, check for clothes blocking door and clean latch. Check if Child Lock is on, display shows lock icon, press and hold Child Lock button for 3 seconds to disable. Check if Delay End is set, cancel delay. Ensure washer plugged in securely and circuit breaker not tripped, try different outlet. Try hard reset by unplugging for 5 minutes to reboot control board. Check water supply valves open, as some models will not start if no water. Check drain filter clogged causing error. Check Start button not stuck, and control panel not wet. If display shows error code like 4C, 5C, UB, troubleshoot that code. If still not starting after checks, control board or door lock assembly may be faulty and need technician.
