The drain pump is not something that you can simply "reset". If the overload device has operated "open circuited" and has not reset itself after cooling down, it will have to be replaced. It is located between the motor coil and iron. However, if this is the case, it may mean that you have a serious problem with your motor. And to make matters worse, if you have a problem with your drain motor, it may cause problems in your Control Panel.

nF means that washer tried to fill but was unsuccessful. Water supply valves needs to be fully open. Lines may be kinked or screen by the hose hookup at the washer end may be restricting flow. Check to ensure the screens are cleaned by removing hose and pull screens and clean them then try the washer again

I have a vrt ... I hope this helps.... Take of that little door on the front. Have a bucket or bowl ready. Bring down that little black hose, turn the white cap around and pull till it comes off. Drain into the bowl, turn the white filter cap counter clockwise to release some of the suction and wait till the hose stops draining. Remove cap, clean under running water w/ toothbrush. Manual says to make sure that the interior is free of anything (I wiped mine out) and then put it all back together again. Good luck

You might have an object jammed in the pump housing. First thing you must do is to unplug the machine from the power outlet.You will then need to remove the back panel of the washer to access the pump. Disconnect the wiring from the pump and remove the two hoses by compressing the two clamps. ( Be ready for water to pour out of the hoses) Remove the three mounting bolts that hold the pump to the frame of the washer and remove the pump assembly. It is easier to work on the pump if you remove it from the mounting plate. Remove the three screws that hold the impeller housing to the pump motor. Seperate the two parts being careful not to damage the rubber o-ring that seals the unit. Inspect the impeller housing for any debris. (I found a nickle blocking the outlet port in mine). Remove anything you may find and reassemble in reverse order. The machine should reset itself and run as normal.
Good luck!
SOURCE: Considering the purchase of Samsung WF338 / DV338 Washer & Dryer
Don't buy any Samsung products. They're definitely not worth the money. We bought the front load 2009 washer and dryer about 14 months ago. Have always had problems with the dryer -- auto dry is a joke. The washer will not allow you to change the water temp. It's supposed to automatically correct the water temp; what a joke. AND the power went off today while the washer was filling with water, with clothes in the tub. No way to open the door, and we have to wait almost a week for a service call!!! IF YOU BUY SAMSUNG PRODUCTS, YOU WILL BE WASTING YOUR MONEY!!!
