Dishwasher has been siting unused for a couple months ( waiting for a back ordered drain hose) now the low level water error code is on there is some dirt build up in the side reservoir where the water goes in, would this be causing my problem if so can it be cleaned how? replaced? or should i be looking at something else
Your water level float is probably stuck. Take a look at this video and it shows you how to basically access this component. Use CLR to clean it out. Be careful to turn off your dishwasher breaker. Electricity and water do not mix well. Your dishwasher may be slightly different but Samsung dishwashers are pretty consistent in general as far as parts go. If you have at least basic mechanical skills you should not have any problem doing this repair.
SOURCE: My Samsung DMR57 Dishwasher gives me error code
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.

Do you hear the washer draining (into the sink drain) after it fills and should start washing? Check that nothing (sound deadener, etc.) is interferring with the drain valve lever arm.

Sounds like it could be those same water level sensors you worked on before. Only now its telling the thing that there is water still standing in the unit. Try cleaning those sensors again and I know this sounds obvious but check all your conections.
