Questions & Answers

For Samsung Refrigerator Temperature Sensor (Part Number: OEM12422961)

1 Answer

Bill,

This is a dual evaporator unit and this issue may be caused by warmer temps in the refrigerator. Check the evaporator coil to make sure that it is not frozen up and that there is a good frost pattern.

Dan,
The temp sensor should have a resistance reading of 11,741 at 38 degrees give or take 5%. Testing the sensor is done at CN30 pin 6 and CN76 pin 1 for 4.6 volts to 1.0 volts The sensor should be located behind the rear cover in the fresh food section.

Ken, the refrigerator temperature sensor for your model would be part number DA32-00011C and at 80°F should read at 4690 ohms when testing from the main control from connection CN76 pin 1 (grey wire) to connection CN30 pin 6 (white wire). If the sensor measures at this resistance, then the refrigerator temp sensor in the evaporator cover has failed. If the resistance measures 11700 ohms then the sensor is registering at 37°F and the issue would be with the main control. For the main control, there will be a REV number on the model tag that would be necessary to ensure that the correct main control part number can be provided.

John, you will want to test the temperature sensors to ensure that they are reading the proper resistance compared to what the actual temperature is. If they are reading the proper resistance compared to the actual temperature, then the most likely issue would be with the main control. A temperature chart will be sent to assist with testing.

Jeff, you may want to check the refrigerator and freezer thermistors for proper operation. Another thing to check is that the three way valve is rotating to allow freon to go to the freezer evaporator. This can be done by unplugging the refrigerator and waiting for 5 minutes before plugging it back in. This will cause the refrigerator to go into a self test mode and the valve will be engaged. From there, you will want to check for any signs of a freon leak.

Steve, you may want to check the main control DA92-00447C. You can test for outgoing voltage to the door switches at CN50 pin 9, 10, and 11. There should be continuous voltage being supplied at these pins when placing the red probe of a meter on these pins and the black probe at pin 8 of this connector. If there is not continuous voltage, then you have a bad control. If there is voltage, then you will want to check that the control is sending voltage to the lights by going to CN78 black probe to pin 2 and red probe to pin 3 for refrigerator section, pin 1 for freezer, and pin 4 for the final section depending on which door is opened. If there is not voltage going to one of these when the corresponding door to the section is opened, then you have a bad control.

John,

It is recommended to give the unit 24 hours to reach the proper temperatures.

Jesus,

You will want to check to see if the water is overfilling the icemaker which would be caused by a faulty water valve. If the icemaker is not cycling then this will most likely be caused by a faulty icemaker.
