The Samsung Oven code SE means: Key sensor / touch panel error — a stuck key or faulty membrane switch on the control panel.
Difficulty: Moderate — DIY-able with basic tools
What to do, step by step
- Unplug the range for 30 minutes (or flip the breaker).
- If code returns, one of the touch keys is stuck — press each key firmly to free it.
- Still failing: the membrane switch panel needs replacement.

Is the repair worth it?
Before spending money, run the numbers: if the repair quote is more than about 30% of what a new oven costs — especially on an older unit — replacement is usually the smarter call.

Safety first: unplug the appliance (and shut off gas where applicable) before any inspection. If you smell gas, leave the area and call your gas provider.
