Andrew B Rolling Prairie , IN January 08, 2016 Appliance: Samsung Refrigerator RB215LABP/XAA-0000 The refrigerator section was freezing food After reading stories on this website I decided the problem was probably the control board. I ordered the sensors also just in case. The display has been dim for awhile so I got that also. I replaced the board and the display in less than an hour. It is working perfectly now so I never installed the sensors. I believe the board was ruined by a recent power outage. The power flickered several times before it went out, I don't think the board could handle the fluctuations. This will be my go to place for parts from now on. Parts in stock and shipped fast.

John A Star Valley Ranch , WY June 08, 2015 Appliance: Samsung Refrigerator RB2055SW/XAA The appliance started warming up even thought the displays showed correct temps Changed all sensors in the freezer and the fridge along with a new board. My guess in what the real issue was, ended up being related to the fridges "Thermal Fuse", since I found melted insulated tape on the defrosting coil. I first changed out the board and the sensors and it still failed to function. I then changed out the Thermal Fuses and the Start Relay along with the ice makers sensor. Basically a trial and error project, but finalizing that it was the Thermal Fuses actually fixing the problem.
