1 Answer Hello Jack, You either have a bad power transformer DA26-00022B, or the unit has a bad Electronic Control DA41-00293A. Read More...

Maya April 16, 2013 for Model Number Samsung RB215 Refrigerator 2 days ago, my Samsung RB215 refrigerator was freezing everything in the fridge (at that time the thermostat read 44 degrees for the fridge and 4 degrees for the freezer – which is they typical setting). When I unplugged it and plugged it back in the thermostat read 33 degrees for the fridge and -16 degrees for the freezer. Yesterday everything seemed fine (the fridge read 44 and freezer 4); but just to confirm, I unplugged it again to recheck the thermostat. The fridge read 46 and the freezer read -16. This morning, the fridge felt warm (thermostat read 44/4). I unplugged it again and when I plugged it back in the thermostat read 56 and -16. Is it safe to assume that the problem is the thermostat? And if so, is this something simple that I can fix? Thank you, in advance for your assistance
1 Answer Hello Maya. No, if you unplug and plug up and it reads good, then the thermostat is reading properly, and the control board is bad on the unit. Read More...
James January 03, 2012 for Model Number RB215LABP My ref. And freezer it gets cool and freezes but in like 24hr. It gets hot and stays hot for 24hr. And the temp lights start flashing and may8 hr. Later it is running fine any help ?
1 Answer Hello James. It sounds like the main control board DA41-00293A may have a sticking relay and is causing the unit to stay in defrost mode. Try unplugging the control for about 30 minutes to reset it. If the problem continues, replace the control board. Hope this helps. Read More...
Blaine May 03, 2011 for Model Number RB215LABP I'm looking for the Freezer temperature sensor. The sensor for the refrigerator section is listed T on the end (DA32-10105T) and the sensor for the Freezer section is listed with a S on the end (DA32-10105S). which one is this?
1 Answer Hello Baline. This is the refrigerator sensor. For the number you provided for the freezer you will need to order DA32-10105T. Hope this helps. Read More...
Blaine May 03, 2011 for Model Number RB215LABP I'm not sure what you mean when you say this is the sensor for the unit. Is the the sensor that is used for the refrigerator to read the temperature of the freezer. My service manual calls it F-Sensor and part number DA32-10105S. Is this the part?
1 Answer Hello Blaine. Yes, this is the correct part. It is the refrigerator temperature sensor. Thanks. Read More...
Blaine April 29, 2011 for Model Number RB215LABP My freezer shows -2 DegF when it is actually +18. The freezer seems to cycle ok but with a offset of 20 degF. Is this the sensor used for the freezer compartment control? If so what should the reading be at ambient and can it be calibrated at the control board?
1 Answer Hello Blaine. This is the temperature sensor for the unit. Here is a chart to go by on testing the sensors. Thermistor Temperature Resistance 77°F..................10,000 ohms 36°F..................29,500 ohms 0°F....................86,300 ohms You can test this with a multi-meter MA-DM1.
