Strange one this…the ice maker gets so overfilled it overflows into the ice bucket and out of the dispenser chute. Turning the ice off at the touch panel stops it as you might expect…there’s no sign of the valve leaking by.
Wondered if the timing of the inflow was controlled by the icemaker unit itself so we’ve replaced this but still no different.
Anyone come across this before? Does the main pcb control the water fill timing for the icemaker?
Re: Samsung RS21JGRS
Yes the pcb can be programmed to adjust the water level.
If you put the model number and serial number into the samsung web site you should be able to get the details up in the installation handbook.
You adjust it on the display PCB.

Re: Samsung RS21JGRS
Hi Bob thanks for that…i did have a look but the manual explains checking the water level in the icemaker (p.32) but no explanation of how to adjust it.
Do you have a link to it?
Re: Samsung RS21JGRS
Press the power cool and freezer temp buttons for 12 seconds.
You should here it beep at 12 seconds make sure it’s 12 seconds or you will be in a different mode.
You should have zero on freezer side and zero on fridge side displayed.
Then press power freeze or freezer temp buttons to display 3 on freezer side and 0 on the fridge side this gives a Five second fill.
Three is for the ice timer function. o is the time of fill.
To adjust the fill you press the fridge temp or power cool button.
I = 4 seconds 2 =3 seconds 3 = 6 seconds then increases 1 second at a time up to 10 and 15 is maximum fill time of 25 seconds.
This is displayed on the fridge side.
After 20 seconds when you set the Icemaker it goes back to the normal display.
You can test the level with the test button on the Icemaker.
Make sure you have a container to collect the water under the ice maker when testing.
This is from memory but if you check on line it should be in the RS21 service / installation manual.
It would be unusual for the timing to be out unless the water pressure has changed or the solenoid is faulty.
