# Samsung range showing bAd LinE

Samsung shows bAd LinE when the power connection to the range is installed the wrong way.

## What bAd LinE actually means.

Samsung shows bAd LinE when the power connection to the range is installed the wrong way. It is a wiring problem at the terminal block, not a control failure.

Samsung range display

What to do when bAd LinE shows on the range

### Kind of code Controls and communication

The display, the main board or the induction power board lost contact with one another, or one of them failed its own self-check. A power dip, a loose cable or moisture from a boil-over is ruled out before a board is replaced, and a range that keeps heating while this code shows is switched off at the breaker.

### Usually leads to Knobs, switches and controls

Knobs that spin or crack, touch keys that do nothing, blank displays, clocks that reset and control boards that switch the wrong thing.

### Shows up as Range Keeps Tripping the Breaker

The range breaker trips when you switch on an element, the oven or self-clean, or it trips by itself with the range idle.

### Make Samsung

A Korean electronics group whose freestanding and slide-in ranges run on gas, electric and induction.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Samsung's own guidance for bAd LinE on its ranges. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Switch the range off at the breaker.

02

Have the installer or a technician reconnect the power cord as the installation manual shows; do not work on the wiring yourself.

03

The message clears once the connection is correct.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [knobs, switches and controls](https://rangerepair.center/services/knobs-switches-and-controls/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

bAd LinE is not a sign of a weak home circuit or a failed board.

## What you may notice with it.

## Questions about bAd LinE.

### Can I clear bAd LinE myself?

Switch the range off at the breaker. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My new Samsung range shows bAd LinE on the first day. Who should fix it?

The installer, since Samsung ties the message to how the power cord was connected. Keep the breaker off until the connection is redone.

### Can I keep using a Samsung range that shows bAd LinE?

Treat it as an electrical issue and leave the breaker off. A miswired cord is a risk even when parts of the range seem to work.
