Re: samsung RS21 strange problem

Just as an update and to help anyone else in the future.I removed the surround and circuit board, sprayed the switches with some silicone and cleaned the board and reseated. So far, three days later, the display is working fine and no beeping or engaging power cool 🙂

Thanks again to Bob and others for their assistance.

samsung RS21 strange problem

Hi,

Did you ever get this fixed? I too have an RS21 and have been getting the same beeping, with power cool engaging on and off sporadically. To see if it was a sticking PCB switch, I engaged “Child Lock”, as this will disable the buttons. This stopped the beeping so far, but now none of the buttons work, and I am unable to turn off the child lock 🙁 (I am holding the button down). Even after disconnecting the power for 20 mins, it still shows child lock and I cannot disable.

Based on the above, I have come to the conclusion the display PCB must have a fault, so would like to replace. Do you mind me asking how you removed the display to get at the PCB? I presume it is from the front, or do I need to undertake from the inside door?

PS. Forgot to say, I did try some silicone spray onto the button (to absorb through the button gaps), but no joy.

Cheers
