John L November 20, 2023 for Model Number RFG297AARS/XAA The compressor runs and draws normal amperage, the inverter control board light is on with no blinks, the condenser fan runs, the liquid line is hot leaving the compressor, but there is very little heat on the liquid line once it comes out of the condenser, but there is no cooling in the refrigerator or freezer sections. Both evaporator fans are running. What are the possible reasons for this problem?
1 Answer John L, Based on the information provided, you will likely have a sealed system issue (an inefficient compressor or a refrigerant leak). This type of repair would require an EPA-certified technician. Read More...

Shane January 23, 2023 Is the compressor pre-oiled or does this have to be added before installation?
Pescadode74 January 14, 2023 for Model Number RFG297AABP/XAA Compressor BK190CL2C/ASH (Replacement for BK190CL2C/E01) Compressor is not turning on. The compressor fan does not turn on. No errors on the front panel diagnostics mode. What should the OHMs/resistance test be from pin to pin on a good compressor? Mine (original E01) is testing 8.7 between each pin-to-pin option after some jumping around. The self-diagnostics on the backboard flashes on 5 times. The chart on the back sticker only shows up to four flashes. What do five flashes mean? Both boards on the back of the refrigerator have no obvious failures/black spots. The fuse on each board tests good. When plugged in the white relay on the upper left of the clicks and flashes green. Other relays can be heard clicking, but no lights other than the error LED.
1 Answer The five blinks are a low voltage code. Check input voltage or for a locked compressor. Samsung states to replace the inverter PCB, if the results are then the same replace the compressor. The compressor windings should be approximately 10 ohms. Read More...

1 Answer Louise, the compressor BK190CL2C/ASH would be used with the model provided. When replacing a compressor, the filter drier DA81-06006A would need to be replaced as well. Read More...
