Re: Samsung SR-S20/22 SRS616DHSS Evap Htr Opn Circt Err Cd

Thanks for your reply Bryan.

Looking at the thing carefully, it seems that to replace the heater one has to be very careful of all the tiny fins – twist them slightly to release the heater and twist them back to get good heat transfer from the new one.

Apart from that, it needs reasonable care with the cable ties to snug the heater in, but not overtighten them.

Of course, not bending the evaporator about very much. Is that about it?

Thanks Bryan,

Am I right in thinking the defrost heater ONLY comes as a unit with the evaporator? I know they are very closely coupled to optimise heat transfer to the fins, but it does look like it could be carefully separated and replaced if it was available separately.

And if the evaporator has to be replaced is it a straight forward job for the average refrig. serviceman?

By the way, does the evap heater pull 240volts? Just curious – I wouldn’t try for a repair – too much moisture around and thermal stressing for it to last long and the chance of an unintended path to earth is pretty high 😯 .

Re: Samsung RL36SBMS!!!

Hi Bryan,

Do you mean the frost heater is open circuited, has infinite resistance, is burnt out?

Hi Mumdawn,

I don’t know your model, but if it has “freezer temp” and “refrig temp” buttons hold them both down for about 3 secs. It works on mine. Good luck. 😀
