Samsung Range Error Code: bAd

The error code “bAd” on your Samsung range typically occurs when the power connection is plugged in improperly. This code is designed to alert you to a potential issue with the power supply. Fortunately, resolving this error is relatively straightforward.

Solution:

1. Power Disconnection: To address the “bAd” error code, first, disconnect the power supply to the range. You can do this by either unplugging the range from the electrical outlet or by turning off the circuit breaker that supplies power to the range.
2. Reconnect Properly: After ensuring that the power supply is completely disconnected, carefully inspect the power cord and the electrical outlet. Make sure the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet and that there are no loose connections or frayed wires.
3. Verify Polarity: Check the polarity of the power connection. In most cases, the black wire should be connected to the hot terminal, the white wire to the neutral terminal, and the green or bare wire to the ground terminal. Ensure that these connections are correct.
4. Reset the Range: Once you’ve verified the power connections and corrected any issues, reconnect the power supply to the range. You can do this by plugging it back into the outlet or by turning on the circuit breaker. Ensure that the range is receiving power properly.
5. Test: Turn on the range and check if the “bAd” error code has disappeared. If the power connection has been restored correctly, the error message should no longer be displayed.

If you’ve followed these steps and the error code “bAd” persists, or if you are uncertain about handling electrical connections, it’s advisable to seek professional assistance. An experienced technician can diagnose and resolve any underlying issues with the range’s power supply, ensuring safe and proper operation.
