Hi Emohawk,
I have same issue on my 14yr old Samsung RSH1DBRS at the moment; I am curious as to whether you got a refrigeration/appliance engineer to look at your unit in the end or whether the diagnosis of low refrigerant was your own guess?
I am leaning towards the same guess on mine, as all sensors/fans seem ok.
Think a repair on something like this would be totally uneconomical – I just hate scrapping an almost working unit! It goes against my “fixit till it falls apart” ethic!!
FWIW (you probably know now!) the freezer temperature sensor (F-Sensor) is located behind the upper rear wall cover; the ice maker unit with the freezer light needs to be removed in order to remove the rear cover. My sensor was reading 600 ohms & the resistance rises when the sensor is chilled with butane gas. (R-Sensor is located behind the top rear cover in the fridge also from what I can see; I haven’t removed/tested this one as my fridge is chilling somewhat ok; suspect it may be a little on the warm side also though, again this leads me towards refrigerant/compressor area diagnosis.
