From Samsung - What could The 1E or OE On The Display Of The WaterWall Dishwasher Mean?

Answer - Blockage preventing proper drainage. The 1E and/or OE error codes on a dishwasher indicate a blockage preventing proper drainage. To resolve the issue, try cleaning the Fine Filter System and Sump in the dishwasher. If that doesn't work, service may be required.
