1 Answer Hello Chris, thank you for contacting APP, It does not appear that the Ice Maker Fill Tube DA97-00209Z is compatible with this unit according to the manufacturer, they list DA97-18245B, APP part # DA97-18245B, as the replacement for the Fill Tube. Read More...
Kevin February 29, 2024 for Model Number RFG298HDRS/XAA-00 The lower ice maker begin only making small chunks/chips of ice and then stopped making any ice. The fill tube was frozen, defrosted and the fill tube again froze after a couple days. Resistance on the old tube was about 40 ohms. I purchased a new fill tube and replaced it. The ice maker is working but continues to only make to small chunks/chips of ice. What is the likely cause. Thank you.
1 Answer Kevin, if the test button on the ice maker is pressed, the valve should be activated for close to 9 seconds at the end of the harvest test. If the valve is activated for close to 9 seconds and the ice maker does not fill properly, the valve in the filter housing DA97-11435A has failed. Read More...

Dale June 28, 2022 for Model Number Samsung RF28HFEDTSR/AA This model has 2 ice makers. The one in the lower freezer drawer has stopped producing ice. Is there any way to tell whether I need to replace the fill tube assembly with the new heater as opposed to replacing the Ice Maker?
1 Answer Dale, if the fill tube is blocked up with ice, the heater would be the cause. If it is not blocked up with ice, the freezer temperature would need to be verified as being at 0°F for the ice maker to properly harvest. If it is at a proper temperature, the ice maker will have a test button on the bottom of the motor that can be pressed. After it completes the test, water should fill the tray. If it does not but the valve could be heard, the valve has failed. If it does fill, the ice maker would be the likely cause of failure. Read More...
Rebecca May 25, 2022 for Model Number RFG298HDRS The top ice maker stopped making ice but bottom still works. When running test it goes through all the motions as if it would drop ice if the tray filled. Any ideas?
1 Answer Rebecca, If the icemaker is not filling with water then you will want to check to see if there is 120 Vac getting to the water valve when the icemaker is supposed to fill with water.If there is power then replace the water valve and if there is not power then replace the icemaker. The valve is located at the bottom of the door. Read More...
Joel April 24, 2022 for Model Number RF260BEAEWW/AA My fill tube has been freezing up regularly. I am able to defrost it and get ice maker to fill for a few days. I removed the fill tube assembly and am getting 78 ohms resistance on the heater. The pins are providing ~12vDC to the heater. Would it be the heater or the control board that is the culprit here?
1 Answer Joel, the heater of the fill tube only operates long enough to keep the tubing warm immediately following a fill cycle. For water to be freezing up as it is, the failure would be in the water valve of the filter housing DA82-02866A. Read More...
Paul S December 03, 2019 for Model Number RFG298AARS/XAA Rear cabinet frame removed and found source of a pretty good leak. This leak is where the furthest right white tube coming up from the water valve enters from the back of the unit. Water leak seems to come from behind the plastic, not from the fitting on the tube. Water dispensing in front okay. Also, where does this water go to inside the unit?
1 Answer Paul, the right-hand tubing with the brown wired solenoid is going to be going to the freezer ice maker. If it is the tubing DA97-05362C that is leaking, it is certainly recommended that it be changed out. However, if it is the plastic casing of the valve DA97-07695A that is leaking, it would need to be changed. Read More...
Bill Prince October 12, 2019 for Model Number RS25H5111SR/AA 4 year old side-by-side Samsung Refrigerator with Ice Maker, and ice/water dispenser in the door. Doesn't get water into to the ice maker, therefore no ice is made. - Water dispenser in door works just fine. - Disconnected water supply tube plastic coupler behind bottom molding, and can blow air thru the hose. Can hear it at water inlet end opening above ice maker inside freezer door.. - Have operated the re-set on the ice maker itself several times. Plastic lever drops and rises when re-set button is depressed, but no change. Is it the ice maker unit itself or something else? Thank You
1 Answer Bill, The water pipe/fill tube and the ice maker are very good possibilities, but the more likely issue, for the symptoms you described is a failed ice maker solenoid on the DA62-02360B / DA62-02360B Refrigerator water inlet valve. If you have a multimeter or test light, you can disconnect the wiring harness for the valve, place your meter leads in/on the terminals of the cabinet wire harness, and cycle the ice maker, if you read 120 VAC across the wires to the solenoid, then the ice maker and wiring are OK, and replace the fill valve.

Jason Sveinson April 01, 2019 for Model Number RF260BEAEBC/AA Looking for the ice maker water fill tube with the heater. would this one work for RF260BEAEBC/AA? I broke the end of the tube trying to replace the heater on it because it kept freezing up. Please Advise.
