Never mind, the illusion couldn’t have been any bigger 2 hours later… back where we started.

Re: Samsung SR-S2028DVW Freezer and fridge temp issues

For any other person who’s going crazy on finding the solution on similar problems (I’ve been going nuts for almost a week now), the solution could be super easy, no parts needed!
It’s only been running for an hour or so now on the desired temperature, but that’s the longest I ever managed to get to when reaching the freezer temperature I wanted.
My solution (if it keeps working):
1. initial setting for the freezer was at -20 degrees. when it reached that temp, everything stopped.
2. now change the setting of the temperature for the freezer to -18 degrees.
3. Once it reaches that, change it to -21 degrees
4. once it reaches that, change it back to -18 degrees and never touch it again 🙂

So far that’s working for me. If it still works tomorrow and i remember, I’ll post an update 🙂

Re: Samsung SR-S2028DVW Freezer and fridge temp issues

Found out that it’s the freezer that’s the problem. Once it reached the set temperature, it stops checking the temperature (of both freezer and fridge it seems).
If you however change the setting of the temperature for the fridge, it will start running again… till it reaches that temperature. then it stops everything again. Any idea’s?

Re: Samsung SR-S2028DVW Freezer and fridge temp issues

Hi,

Have you been able to fix your fridge/freezer?
What was your solution?

I have a similar problem.
Both the freezer and fridge run to the desired temperature (-20 & 3), but after they reached the correct temperature, the warm up again, but don’t cool down again. The temperature on the screen keeps at the -20 & 3 readings, but a thermometer clearly shows a higher temperature.
When I unplug and replug the fridge, with 10 seconds in between, the fridge now shows the correct temperature readings of 14+ degrees, runs again for 1 cycle, but then stops, until i plugged it out and in again.

I unscrewed everything, and tested the thermal fuse (at other forums I read, this should be the issue), but there was electrical continuity. So this is not the problem.
Also the temperature sensor seems to be working as it gives a correct reading when cooling down (not when heating up again) and a correct reading when i plug the fridge back in.

My model is the RS S2229css but it looks exactly the same at the inside as similar SR 20-21-22 models.

The problem is for both fridge and freezer, so i guess it should be something that controls both?

Any help?
