Re: samsung SRL3616B has power but doesnt refrigerate/freeze

Hi all, so we took the defrost sensor out and tested using a multimeter(multi meter set to 20K) – we put it into a different freezer of around -18 the sensor is showing 15.80 or there about’s, once its in room temperature the figure goes down to 5.4 or so…if we set the multimeter to 200 ohms (ie x1) then its showing 1

does this mean that the sensor is faulty?

if it matters, we checked the freezer sensor and the fridge sensor and they were both showing almost identical figures

finally, the defrost heater itself was caked in ice – although I don’t know if this is because we have been turning it off and on again

what to try next?!?!?

yes, thats very useful. I will try and source a replacement defrost heater and defrost sensor

many thanks for that – hopefully be back up and running
