Samsung Refrigerator RFG297HDRS (2013 model) Knocking noises coming from top of fridge due to ice buildup in back panel and ice maker. Need to activate Refrigerator Defrost (code Rd) Pull out bottom shelf and put a towel there to catch defrost water & also need to empty Ice Tray. Put a towel in ice maker compartment if have ice buildup. Push buttons Energy Saver +Fridge for about 8 seconds - screen will change. Push Lighting button - keep pushing to get to code “Rd”. Beeping will be heard. Allow for beeping/defrost for 1 hour. BUT it may turn itself back on with the beeping stopping after 45 minutes. If not then, push Energy Saver+Power Saver. It should turn on. (Push these again if it shows OFF because the OFF is Demo mode and compressor is not on) Repeat as needed and may do weekly or monthly to defrost the back panel and ice maker, which will stop the knocking noises.
Okay, I got it to work!! The buttons were harder to press than I thought. The fridge is now set to defrost, but it’s still beeping. Is it suppose to do that?
Hi, if this happens frequently what is the bigger issue? A part slowly breaking? If so which part is usually the cause and does replacing it fix the problem for a longer amount of time?

Hi i dont have knocking noises sound more like grinding would your method work do u know by chance thanks
@@cristalvargas3674 it is worth a try. Grinding might be ice area frozen or a fan...just a guess from reading other posts.
Great! Works and much simpler/easier. No need to disassemble parts

Yes, it beeps while it defrosts.

And how do u get it back to normal?
Mine has a fairly constant rattle coming from the compressor
How long before it stops beeping?.20 min and still going.
Did you ever get it fixed?

My noise wasn’t beeping. It was more of a grinding noise. Then the ice maker stopped working.
Did you ever fix this? Mine is doing this too.
This won’t work if the ice is in the upper right corner. You need to install another heater in that area.
i have an older model there is no light button
