Ultimaniac July 22, 2024 for Model Number RF27T5201SR/AA Just had a second technician come and check out my refrigerator. First Sears tech told me there was a problem with the sealed system and it would be covered by Samsung. Samsung tech came and told me there was also a problem with the mainboard and that it would cost $500 to replace and they couldn't do the sealed system repair until they replaced the mainboard. I opened the back and looked at the board before either of them came to check and there was no error message. Manual says a solid red light on the mainboard means no error. Compressor's running but the fridge and freezer isn't cooling but there's icing on the coils inside the freezer. Could the mainboard actually have an error or did I just get ripped off? Incidentally, before calling Samsung support, I attempted to see how much a repair would cost on the Samsung website and was also quoted about $500 flat rate to repair the fridge without a tech even coming to look at it.
1 Answer Ultimaniac, While there could be an issue with the main control board, it would be more likely that it is just a sealed system issue. It is not common for there to be a sealed system problem and a control board problem. Read More...
Needy February 26, 2024 for Model Number RF268ABRS/XAA-0000 My bottom ice maker quit working then about a week later my top ice maker quit working. A couple weeks later the freezer quit working (around 45 - 50 degrees). The refrigerator section works great still. I replaced control board but nothing changed. Thoughts of what to check?
1 Answer Needy, This sounds like a sealed system issue and would suggest having service to check the unit. Read More...

Jp October 18, 2022 for Model Number RFG298AARS Refrigerator and freezer will not cool and compressor not on. Inverter board blinking once. Checked power at CN75 on main board connection to inverter. Has .75 on brown wire, 0 on the red, and -4.1 on the orange. Have not checked relay at compressor. Suggestions? Thank you.
1 Answer JP, Based on the information and model number provided: One blink of LED = Test: Check the Inverter PCB & Comp Relay Connectors Replace: If the Connectors are OK, replace the Inverter PCB, if the same, replace the compressor. Read More...
Brian October 03, 2022 for Model Number RFG298AAWP/XAA My refrigerator and freezer stopped working. When I checked the led on the inverter control board it flashes 5 times. i found a chart that says its low voltage. would this be caused by the main board or the inverter board?
1 Answer Hello Brian, the compressor's inverter board is wired directly from the main harness for its 120vac,, it does not involve the main control board, you can check for 120vac at the Red and Grey wires going into the inverter board, if it is there then the inverter board (DA41-00614F) has failed internally, however, the manufacturer has discontinued the part and it is no longer available.

Dave July 18, 2022 for Model Number RFG297AARS/XAA Installed new OEM ice maker DA97-07365G. It made one batch of ice and quit working. Got another one and it did the same thing. after installing the ice maker(both of them) the chimes were continuous not just one chime. Does the DA41-00614F control board control the ice maker also
1 Answer Dave, the main control DA41-00538A would be used to control the ice maker. However, it is recommended that the self-diagnostics are entered to identify if there is a stored error code as this can identify a specific failure. This can be done by pressing and holding the energy saver and the lighting keys at the same time for 8 seconds. The buzzer should chime and an error code should display for 30 seconds if one has been identified by the main control. Read More...
Wec June 22, 2022 for Model Number #rf28k9070sg I have a four-door Samsung refrigerator/freezer, model #rf28k9070sg. The red light on the da41-00822b pc board is lit (not flashing). The fridge and ice maker work fine, but the freezer is not freezing. The coil is clean and fans run. Thoughts? Thx!
1 Answer WEC, Thanks for the question!!! The red light is on steady means that the compressor should be running normally. If your freezer is not cooling you would have a thermistor issue possibly or a sealed system issue. Sealed system issues require an EPA-certified technician. Read More...

Ryan Meeks April 13, 2022 for Model Number RFG237AARS/XAA-0000 My Samsung fridge stopped cooling and then after unplugging and plugging back in started cooling again and worked for about 1 week. Then it stopped working again, I unplugged it overnight, then re-plugged it in and it cooled again for about 3 weeks. I checked the red LED light on the inverter board while in diagnostic mode multiple different days. One day it was blinking once and another day blinking 5 times and then when I checked it a few days later, it was solid red. Today it stopped cooling again and the LED light is still solid red while in diagnostic mode. The compressor was running and felt hot to the touch. After unplugging for a while, it is cooling again. What is the problem?
1 Answer Ryan, This issue sounds more likely that there is a main control board DA92-00163C issue that is keeping the unit from cooling properly. Read More...
