Hi,

If you read back through the forums there’s slews of info on these things. 😉

The short of it is that the only way to cure the problem is to replace the evaporator cover and possibly the thermistors as well. Defrosting it is merely a temporary cure.

The parts required are all are all in this section of the store

hi
i would say likely to be defrost sensor and change thermal fuse, in most repairs i do if defrost heater faulty its the opposite you get no ice on evap as the pcb is usually waiting for heater to come on and because not working will sit in and wait for temp to raise until time to switch back on this can take hours so acts as if heater is working and does defrost eventually

Re: samsung rs21

have you pushed the light switch button with the door open to see if fan comes on,push light switch wait for twenty seconds and fan should come on
this will see if fan is working
