Error codeoD

Quick answer
oD on a Samsung dryer is a dry time error. Samsung suggests a short power-off and a restarted cycle.
Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so oD may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
Dry time error.
A Samsung dryer that displays oD is reporting a dry time error. No particular models are named. Samsung includes oD in a short list of examples where the fault usually involves sensors and components.
The reset
Switch the machine off and give it 2-3 minutes.
Switch it on.
Begin the cycle once more.
Still no luck? Look in the user manual for the model’s exact troubleshooting steps. A returning oD means requesting service.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
