Mikew April 26, 2022 for Model Number RB195BSBB Can you tell me what the normal continuity for a thermal fuse is in this model? Mine is reading a short which sounds correct/good to me. Symptoms, the evaporator is an ice block and struggles to get to any operating temp 8 degrees and below. Can't do it. The thermal temp gauge for the freezer is good at 5.5k ohms, I believe. The defrost temp sense is at 13.25 k ohms as it sits encased in ice yet. The other connection has open leads, I'm not certain what this goes to yet but perhaps the heater?
1 Answer MikeW, Thanks for the question!!! Yes, the thermal fuse should have continuity. The defrost temp sensor is reading 13.25k which equals 32 degrees F, making it the likely issue. In the freezer incased in ice should be well below 32 F. The part number is DA32-10105R. Read More...
John January 02, 2022 for Model Number Samsung RF261beaesr I have 3 problems. 1. In fridge. ice and water buildup under crisper tray. 2. Ice maker not working. 3. Freezer not getting cold. I defrosted the appliance, and things were OK for a few days, but then all 3 problems returned.
1 Answer John, based on the information provided, this unit has a defrost drain clog. The refrigerator evaporator defrost tray and the freezer defrost tray would need to be accessed and the drain ports cleared using hot tap water. The ice maker in the freezer will not make ice unless the freezer is less than 1°F, and this temperature would not be reached if the defrost drain is causing ice build-up on the evaporator coil in the freezer.

Mark August 02, 2021 for Model Number RB215LASH/XAA-0000 Hello, I am having an issue with the Samsung fridge. The temperature is fluctuating from +37F to +50F. I have read the information on Samsung-fridge-not-cooling and seems like there are many possible causes why this happens. Could you tell me where I need to start? Do I need to buy a new defrost thermal fuse and try to fix the problem?
1 Answer Mark, With the refrigerator section fluctuating in temperature it would be recommended to check the refrigerator sensor and the evaporator sensor. At room temperature the resistance will be 5K ohms of resistance. If it is off then the replace the sensor. Read More...

Jake July 17, 2020 for Model Number Samsung Refrigerator RB215LASH Are the thermal fuses the same for the refrigerator & the freezer BOTH? Can they be interchanged ? Or do I need different thermal fuses with different value(s)... ??
1 Answer Jake, the defrost thermal fuse DA47-00095E is used in both the refrigerator and freezer sections. Read More...
Paula July 10, 2020 for Model Number RB1844SW/XAA My Samsung fridge needs to be unplugged and plugged back in to kick it back on to cool. It works great for about 4 hours but when I wake up in the morning and unplug it and plug it back in the temperature is in the 50s for the fridge and 30s for the freezer. It’ll cool back down and need to be reset again. I have replaced the temperature sensor. That didn’t fix it. I replaced DA32-00006W and now the thermal fuse. Am I on the right track here? Is there any other part it may be?
1 Answer Hello Paula, if the ref is not running and the internal temps are rising and unplug/replug turns the ref back on and it cools down again, then what you are doing is resetting the main control board which should not be necessary, the main control board is part DA41-00128D. Read More...
Albert July 09, 2020 for Model Number RS25H5111SR Ice maker stopped making ice. No water into the molds. The cold water works well and the filter regularly replaced as requested by the refrigerator.
1 Answer Albert, it would be recommended that the ice maker fill tube is inspected for an ice blockage. If there is an ice block, it would need to be cleared and the water valve DA62-02360B replaced. If there is not an ice block, the temperature of the freezer would need to be tested using a thermometer. If the temperature is not below 5°F, the ice maker will not make ice properly. If the temperature is good, the test/reset button on the ice maker can be pressed to identify if it will start a harvest. If the harvest mode starts, the water valve would need to be tested for 120VAC. If the valve receives 120VAC but water does not go into the ice maker, the valve has failed. Read More...
Rajeev April 30, 2020 for Model Number Videocon double door fridge 310 ltr Fridge bimetal every time fails after 3-4 weeks. I changed several times. What's is the issue ? Please suggest.
1 Answer Rajeev, if the model number of this appliance could be provided in a new inquiry, this will allow for the most accurate information to be presented. Generally, a hi-limit bi-metal can fail if the defrost heater is overheating continuously. Read More...
Betty March 30, 2020 for Model Number RF28HDEDBSR/AA French door Samsung, ice building up behind back panel in the fridge. I unplugged it and it made a buzzing sound and it defrosted water in the deli drawer. Plugged it in again it lasted about a week then started buzzing. bottom freezer stayed cold.
1 Answer Betty, the defrost heater DA47-00244U will need to be tested for resistance and it should measure 120O. If it does not measure 120O of resistance, then it would need to be replaced. From there, with the defrost sensor DA32-10104N at 50°F it should measure 8.87KO of resistance, at 32°F it should measure 13.29O, at 14°F should measure 20.42KO. Read More...
Michael October 14, 2019 for Model Number RB195BSBB After losing power by unplugging or through breaker dip, the fridge will try to start cooling but immediately cuts off as the compressor and fan start. It tries this repeatedly win a clicking sound. Recently, the temps went haywire and it froze al the stuff in the fridge compartment. I think these are seaparate issues, one sounds like a fuse clicking internally, the other seems related to control board or thermistor. Any tips?
1 Answer Michael, fuses, and thermistors don't usually make a clicking noise unless they "burn out" and fail. The clicking noise and poor cooling are most likely due to a faulty control board and /or a weak overload/relay on the compressor. You will need to access the back of the refrigerator, remove the lower compartment cover and isolate, determine where the clicking noise is from. Read More...
