Quick answer

E8 is the older code for CE on a Samsung washer: a water cool-down issue. The listed check is that the hose sits on the cold supply.

Model compatibility: Samsung reuses codes across series and model years, so E8 Water cool-down issue may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

What this code means
