    Re: Samsung RS21WCSV ongoing problems

    Hi All,

    Just to update. The fridge is still working fine. When I have defrosted it in the past it is usually warm in the top by now, but since I changed the heater, fuse & sensor everything appears to be well.

    Harahhhhhhhhh!

    Thanks Bryan

    Hi Bryan,

    My terminolgy I’m afraid. The old fuse which didn’t have as much ‘padding’ on it as the new one, was in the same position as the new one was on the new kit. I am confident that it has been fitted as directed.

    Many thanks for your assistance.

    Hi All

    I received the heater/evaporator kit and installed it as instructed on Thursday last week. So far so good. Everything seems to be working okay. The job wasn’t too bad to do. I made sure that the thermal fuse went back in the same place as the old one. Thanks for your help and advice Bryan.

    Fingers crossed.

    Bryan,

    I have just read a few of the other topics. In holding down the the two top buttons the middle segment on the fridge side is lit, so I assume a defrosting problem. I am reasonable edept at pulling this thing to pieces so would I be able to replace the thermal fuse, defrost sensor and heater? I have had a look at the spares on your Samsung spares page and they all look familiar.

    All of this makes sense as I seem to have to manually defrost the thing every 4 or 5 weeks.

    Thanks,

    Andy

    Hi Bryan,

    Thanks for the swift reply. I am sorry but I do not know how to check the defrost heater. What do I need to do?

    Many thanks,

    Re: Samsung RS21WCSV Side by side. Fridge warm, freezer fine

    Hi Guys,

    Since my last post I removed the evaporator cover and defrosted all the ice off the pipe work. I also dried out the cover. Once refitted all was well…for about 3 weeks. It has now started do the same again. I am told there is a modified cover assembly as it would appear that once saturated it is impossible to dry the polystyrene fully.

    Can anyone quote me a price please.

    Many thanks,

    AndyT

    Re: Please help. Samsung RS21WCSV. Fridge warm, freezer fine

    Please help.

    I have now noticed that some days the fridge display says 3c and others it is 12 -14c. However at all times the bottom of the fridge appears cool and the top warm. Selecting power cool doesn’t do anything.

    Can you suggest anything or do I need an engineer?

    Many thanks,

    Andy

    Not that I recall. I can here the motor as the freezer works fine. The odd thing is that the temperature display varies between 3c & 17c but the fridge is definately warm. The fridge worked okay for a couple of weeks after the defrosting but is now kaput again.

    I am tempted to taking the panel off at the rear of the inside of the fridge but I am not sure what I am looking for.
