Samsung RS2556 Side by Side Refrigerator - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

more likely it was in twisted condition when it was turned to luck it or unlock it and stayed in twisted position and will not turn. get a hair dryer and blow the hot air around where it lucks. push filter in and turn to unlock it. hot air expand the lucking plastic cover and it allows for easy turns

A lot of different brand refrigerators have similar problems to this. I encountered this stuck filter problem on our Samsung side-by-side fridge that has the filter inside the fridge side and above the top shelf towards the back-right corner. Here is the solution that worked for me...

1. Remove the top glass shelf to give yourself extra working room.
2. Put on some rubber cleaning gloves to be able to get a tight grip.
3. Turn the old filter 1/4-turn to the left... it may take quite a bit of force.
4. Pull-down on the old filter to remove it. If it still will not come out, proceed to the next step.
5. After you turn the old filter 1/4-turn to the left and it stops, then get a good grip, because you will need to turn it an additional 1/8-inch to 1/4-inch. The left-edge of one of the vertical molding lines that run down the Aqua Pure filters should be directly under the centering-mark on your water filter holder.

That extra 1/4-inch counter-clockwise turn always seems to do the trick, and then the filter pulls down and out easily. Good luck!

the defrost timer, u can get by and test manually by placing a small screw driver into the tiny slot or hole underneath the timer and turn slowly clockwise till u hear 1 click. this will engage ur defrost cycle in about 15 minutes u should be able to come back and feel the heat in freezer as it melts the ice providing ur terminator is not bad? Another way to test it is with a multi meter. Remove timer it from fridge and you will see 4 prongs numbered 2,1,4,3 in that order. Place ur meter prong on prong 1 & 3 (if your fridge has a capacitor wired in series with the windings, then u check for micro fares rather than OHMS) If u cannot confirm this test, still try the next. Take ur meter prong and connect to prong 1 & 4, it should read resistance or ohms ( closed) now remove prongs and place on prong 1 & 2, this should now read infinity or open (no ohms) now take a small screwdriver place it in the tiny hole or slot under the timer. Turn it clockwise slowly till u hear 1 click. Now ur 1& 2 should read closed ( showing ohms or resistance) now place meter prongs on 1 & 4 and you it should now show open ( or no resistance - no ohms) this is how u know ur timer is good, Remember when testing for ohms ADJUST meter to use a high ohms rating in the thousands as the resistance is very high in OHMS. And adjusting to low ohms rating may give a false reading or not show the proper resistance..

It should show continuity or resistance OHMS WHEN TESTED AT BOTH ENDS OF THE PRONGS .

Fan may be hitting something stuck in the compartment or a build up of ice on the fans is it defrosting ok? fan bearings may be bad, remove the back wall from freezer and look at the fan when its on?

May need new defrost heater. If so, that heater will read infinite ohms. A good heater will read 50 to 200 ohms. Change small inexpensive clip-on thermostat at same time. But don't worry about a little ice build-up if your temps are okay. Excessive ice build-up will be shown by your hearing a crunchy sound when you reach into the freezer to press your hand against its thin rear wall.

check it closely something has broke an the flap is not closing as u close the door

You will need to provide more information than this. Does the panel show anything or is it dark? Have you unplugged the fridge for a fairly long time, if so did you have water accumulation at the bottom. If so your shutdown could be because the coils are frozen (ice buildup). This can happen in both the freezer and fridge sections. You can remove the back panels to see. I would start with the fridge side as that is the side that freezes up on me from time to time.

hhhhhhhhhjkkkkll

Jonathan is the solution!
It has been 24 hours since my fridgerator has started with the occasional clicking then not cooling. I started on the google hunt and found this website with Jonathan's post. I am a 26 year old female stay at home mom of 2 toddlers. I printed the page of Jonathans success and took it to my local parts store. I purchased the Mars start relay for 16 bucks. I pulled the refrigerator out from the wall and took the back apart and followed Jonathans instructions and I had success. You are a savior! I could never afford a repair man. Thank you so much for your post!!!

Most refrigerators get their cooling from the freezer. I suggest that you give it some time, and make sure the small door or damper leading from the freezer to the fridge is open and not obstructed by any food items

higher numbers on the tempature set make the fridge
colder lower numbers make wormer

Thermistor is out of range

You will need to replace the main control board. Here is the part to order. Here is a diagram of the location of the board. It is number 26.

No they don't

Replace the temperature sensor. Here is the part to order.The sensor is located on the coils in the freezer.

I would look for bad door gaskets. Sounds crazy but if you have bad gaskets, you will let in more moist air and the freezer will freeze up faster. If the fridge is freezing up I would look at the slide from the freezer to the fridge and see if it is stuck open. During the defrost cycle the unit should drain and fill the drain pan, but the normal operation of the compresser should be able to evaporate the water with ease. Look at the door gaskets and the vent. Good luck
