— Samsung Canada, Understanding the meaning of error codes on your Samsung microwave. Codes vary by model: check your microwave’s own manual. Samsung says this page covers microwaves sold in Canada; codes may differ elsewhere.
In plain words, E-52 is about the electronic control or its keypad — a board, a connection between boards, or a stuck key.
Samsung gives 3 other control and display codes for this microwave: C-F0 (Communication Error), E-83 (Communication Error), TE (Touch Communication Error).
Next to E-52 in Samsung’s table: E-45 (Cooling Error) and E-61 (Open Humidity Sensor Error).
Safety: If you see smoke or flames, or smell burning, turn it off at the breaker and keep the door closed. If a fire does not go out, get out and call 911.
At least THIS WEEK. fixRAgent treats this code as a this-week repair: the appliance has reported a fault, but the code alone does not point at a safety hazard. This is fixRAgent’s reading, not the manufacturer’s. A photo can raise it — water near wiring, scorch marks, a gas smell — but a code never lowers what the photo shows.
Appliance repair. Have the model and serial numbers from the label ready — a photo of the label works.
Check whether your model is under a safety recall on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s site: cpsc.gov/Recalls. Your owner’s manual is on Samsung’s support site; search it with the model number from the label.
