    Hi All

    The infamous Samsung RS21 problems with the noisy fan, constant frosting etc were I thought resolved when I changed the defrost heater and all the sensors and back panel.

    About 2 weeks ago, I changed the defrost heater but since then I have noticed that the freezer is not working properly. The diagnostic check (pushing the 2 top buttons) did not show any errors. The freezer temperature shows -20C but I left a bottle of water in the freezer compartment last night and this morning it was still unfrozen.

    Please can some one advice what the problem could be?

    Thanks in anticipation.

    Regards

    Hi RE

    All that I have chnaged is the defrost heater, the evaporator cover and the two sensors, i.e the yellow one at the top with the black head and the sensor at the bottom right hand side. These two sensors came with the defrost heater when I bought it.

    I really am at my wits end as everthing is new. All I can think off could it be the compressor is gone. How can I tell if this is the case?

    The freezer temperature is now 1 degree C. It keeps reverting back to this despite my setting it to -20C.

    Help anyone!!!!!

    Regards

    Finally got the freezer working. Found out the back of the freezer was frozen solid with ice.
    Defrost the freezer overnight and its now working again
