I had a Samsung refrigerator in my shop that was making a noise from the fan which is a common problem, so I went ahead and tore it apart to diagnose it, and show you why it can be elusive if the panel gets frozen. I cover a few things in the video including:
- Fixing a Samsung Refrigerator Noise
- How to Force Defrost a Samsung Refrigerator
- How to Fix a Samsung Refrigerator Evaporator Fan
- How to replace Samsung Refrigerator Drain Tube
Many of the solutions to this issue, typically aren't the fan - most possible issues are with the system behind the panel being frozen. There are a few possible items that could fix this, or solve the moisture issues, I referenced in the video. Some of these are:
- Samsung Secondary Heat Kit: bit.ly/2V55X4X
- Samsung Defrost Sensor: bit.ly/3HDsvwB
- Samsung Refrigerator Moisture & Leak Kit: bit.ly/3nPK5WV
- Drain Tube Kit: bit.ly/3HHpJ9x
- Other Parts (Evaporator Fan, Thermal Fuse, ect): bit.ly/3x3AHAF

Video was spot on. We bought our unit new 8 years ago and when today I took it apart, I find the back has cracks in it with bubble gum sealant covering the original cracks. The cracks have getting bigger over time time and now the bigger cracks are now allowing humid air in. The back is now a spider web of cracks. The unit was damaged when sold to me as new. Both Grand Appliance and Samsung say “ Not my problem”.

Thanks for a very informative helpful video. Our Samsung french door fridge is about 7 yrs old. I first noticed a rust spot about 2 inches in diameter on the upper middle part of the rear when I moved the fridge out to shut off the water supply to replace the filter. Didn't think much about it. No visible water on the floor or any indication of it not running as it should. Not too long after that I heard the fan noise. Took it apart and sure enough, ice formation on the coils behind the panel. I melted the ice, put it back together and that cured the fan noise............for 4 weeks. Had to do it again. I need a more permanent fix (additional heater?). Samsung appliances SUCK! I had one of their exploding washing machines, a 65 inch flat screen TV that broke down 5 times right after we purchased it. I give up on Samsung! Oh yeah, that rust spot is now turning into a hole. I think it's getting to be new fridge time shortly.

great tip on force defrosting. Of course the manual doesnt tell you about THAT!! It helped loosen the ice because we could not get the back off. Once we got the back off the ice was completely covering everything. Hair dryer and small hammer and screwdriver (carefully used) got it all off in less than an hour. A side benefit is opportunity for deep clean of the entire fridge!! ;-) We were able to do all this without disconnecting the wires. There was a enough room to work.

Hi Ben, I have a question.

Should these clips be depressed to remove the panel instead of grip and rip? My panel is not coming off, and I am letting it defrost now. Thanks.

In the issue of the frozen-up fan, moisture is, usually 80-90% of problems. The two best ways to fix this is through either a moisture kit: bit.ly/3nPK5WV Or secondary heater kit (or better yet, both): .bit.ly/3azB4e4 Hope the video helps you! ~ Ben

One question; could having food (jars, containers, etc flush against the panel holes interfere with the proper functioning of the defrosting & then lead to ice buildup that affects the fan? Should I maintain a 1-2 inch gap? Thanks.

The other side was normal. My son cranked up the temp for the freezer and it then lost its cool. Freezer side is at 55 degrees at factory setting . fridge is at 60. Ive let it unplugged for two days same. I took off the back and cleaned it. I can hear the fan move. Would love help. I don't want to replace her.

Just wanted to comment on this to boost the awareness of this video. My Samsung started to freeze up and froze up twice within 6 months. The 2nd time I heard the fan hitting the ice until it eventually stopped completely and the temp was 60F in the fridge. I got your heater kit, bought the tools you suggested off of Amazon, and did the fix you gave. It's been over a year now and I've not any issues with the evaporator/fan and the fridge is cooling as it should. Around $60 and a couple hours invested vs a $400-500 service call that would probably NOT have been a permanent fix because Samsung refuses to even acknowledge all the issues with these fridges and recall/repair them properly. I appreciate your help and thorough guidance. Unfortunately I have a separate issue with the ice maker not staying cold enough and the ice being wet/slushy and not forming proper shapes. I thought it might be the gasket separating it from the fridge area being loose and letting warm air into it but I'm not sure. Any advice on that? I know there's a class-action lawsuit about it but I don't know if there's actually any decent fixes. Can't remember the model # but mine is a french door model with the Twin Cooling Plus and the Flex Drawer.

@bensappliancesandjunk
@bensappliancesandjunk 2 жыл бұрын
It automatically defrost every so often. The systems ability to fully remove all the frost gets degraded due to blockages in the drain tube and water infiltration of the evaporator panel as well as sensors going offspec. The refrigerant lines up top get the most moist air so they soak up more ice than the defrost system can handle.

Thoughts? First, awesome video, helped me defrost and fix the issue however it froze back up again 6 months later. I wound up buying the longer tab that goes deeper into the drain tube as many have mentioned. Well I did the defrost and got everything done and went to slide the long tab into the drain hole and it won't go. There is ice frozen in it haha. Cant get the tube to thaw out completely, any thoughts?

Cycle lots of warm water into the drain til it clears

I heated up a short length of copper wire (red hot) with a torch and melted the ice that was clogging the drain tube. Then poured a small amount of boiling water through it.

Does this method work on a bottom freezer loud humming noise?? Does the refrigerator evap also cool the freezer?

It has a separate evaporator. The general idea would work there as well

Hello, I’ve tried buying the heater kit from your link but it says unavailable, when do you think you might have it back in stock again, I really need it 🙂👍

I get an ice build up like in the video, I’ve replaced the sensor and replaced the drain pin and I’m still getting ice build up. Tomorrow I’ll clean the drain tubes and move my new thermostat to where you suggested in the video. I’ve been battling this issue for a year now.

I’m sorry for not being clear about my issues with my Samsung fridge. I get an ice build up all over very the coils and get a fan noise due to fan hitting the ice. I found your video absolutely amazing and thanks to people like you I might be able to get some more years out of my fridge as it is 8 years old and in immaculate condition. Thank you so much sir!!! Maybe you could somehow put one extra heater kit for me that would be awesome. I’m in Canada. Thank you so much once again!!!

I have a Samsung RF24FSEDBSR and the ice maker doesn`t work, which one of your replacements should I order? I also need the sealer but don`t see it on your site. Do I need to replace the circuit board at the same time?

Icemaker for that fridge: bens-appliances.com/products/samsung-refrigerator-icemaker-da97-13718c I always suggest the total moisture kit,. which includes the SIL-4500: bens-appliances.com/products/samsung-icemaker-leak-moisture-kit Your call on circut board. It can help, but isn't the top most-likely thing to solve issue. I will note though that its VERY cheap relative to other models. Here's a link to that (its another website we own, but since its an OEM part its on a different area of the site): oemparts.bens-appliances.com/products/pcb-assembly-eeprom

Do you have a video of how to install the heater itself, just to be 100% clear to get the best results? I did whole defrost in the fridge (took like 6 hours as it was really frozen up), and 2-3 weeks later, I see ice on the back again. I need to resolve this once and for all or get a new fridge. EDIT: found it, thanks !
