  • We have had numerous issues with our ice maker, and also issues with our water dispenser which would intermittently stop dispensing water. We found the water issues happened more on cold days. We isolated the problem to the water line freezing in the top of the unit above the ice maker. We show an easy hack that fixes this and provide a method to troubleshoot and fix the issue if this is a new problem on your Samsung fridge. Our model is RF263BEAE specifically RF263BEWW/AA but other models are similar.

    Cool vid, I typically hold down the freezer and lighting/temp buttons for 10s ‘til it goes on diag mode, then I tap on the lighting button until I see “Fd” (force defrost) then let it beep until it stops, works all the time.

  • @brianhourigan4472

    Thanks so much for this video. I had tried so many different hacks, but I found that the only thing that worked was to heat the blue hose with a hair dryer from the back of the fridge near the top right where the hose goes into the fridge body. This was a major hassle because my fridge fits very tightly into the cabinetry and is a bear to pull out and back in every few days or weeks when the water dispenser stopped working. As an interesting experiment, I wanted to verify exactly where the frozen blockage kept occurring, so when I disconnected the blue hose from the connector under the removable panel on top of the fridge, I ran a trim line back through the blue hose toward the back of the fridge and I discovered that the blockage was not in the run above the ice maker, but was right at the point where the blue hose enters the back of the fridge just before it passes over the ice maker. After melting the blockage with the hair dryer, the trim line ran all the way past that point and down the back of the fridge. It would be nice to know why this is happening at that spot, but I assume it is somehow related to the seemingly universal problem with the ice makers frosting over in these refrigerators. Anyway, your solution was simple to implement and is a permanent solution. So far I don't really notice a significant difference in the temperature of the dispensed water which was a serious concern I had about about this hack. Thanks again and I encourage anyone else with this problem to use this hack...it really works and is genius in it's simplicity.

    Thanks for this video. I made this change and it helped stop the water line from freezing up. I did have to make one other change - there is an insulated cap on the back of the fridge where the main water goes to the filter and the two lines come back out for the water dispenser and ice maker. The lines had frozen under this cap. I used a hair dryer to thaw the line because I didn't want to shut off the fridge again. I left the cap off to keep this section from freezing again. It's been over a month and all is still OK.

    Great video thank you for sharing. However just to add my experience here so that others don’t have to go through what I did. When my dispenser stopped working I researched online to see what it could be and everyone seemed to say it was the water inlet valve at the rear or a frozen pipe in the door (not likely in the newer fridges) going to the dispenser. After waiting 2 weeks for the inlet valve and after fitting it, it still didn’t work. I tried everything until I removed and emptied the water reservoir behind the salad crisper. When I reattached it I found the reservoir didn’t refill at all. So I checked that good pressure and water was going to the water inlet valve and it was fine. So I removed the clear/white pipe from the inlet valve at the rear that goes to the reservoir/tank and blew in to it but seemed like it was blocked. I then removed it from the reservoir/tank and pulled it out completely and blew into it. Nothing. It’s a 2 foot pipe and the air wouldn’t go through so I waited a few minutes as I thought it was frozen then suddenly it cleared. Voila! There you have it. Reattached everything, the pipe goes back in from inside the fridge easily, and the tank filled up and water and ice is now perfect. Just that 2 foot pipe! 😂

    • @GR8WHITEC5
      @GR8WHITEC5 Год назад

    Easier fix for now (but will it be permanent?) We had the same problem and THANKS SO MUCH for this awesome video. I managed to fix our frozen line without disassembling the fridge. What I did was melt the ice in the blue tube by placing a hair dryer blowing hot air on the top of the fridge in the area directly above the ice maker (where the blue tube runs along the top of the ice maker toward the door) for about 20 minutes, occasionally moving the direction of the air flow. The top of the fridge got very very hot (almost untouchable). After 20-25 minutes we stopped the hair dryer and let the induced heat do it's job. When we came back from the store the water was flowing again and so far (3 days) it has not frozen up again. Good luck. and thanks agan for the great video. I would not have known what to do without your video..Kudos!

Mine kept freezing up randomly also and I kept using a hair dryer to thaw it out in that same spot. I finally got fed up with that hassle and used the solution in this video after resisting for several months. Now it works fine and does not freeze up anymore. It would be nice to know why it kept happening and why in that specific spot, but someone smarter than me would have to figure that out. At least it works now. Best of luck!

    I have a suggestion for another video. This did not work for me but only because mine wasn't frozen up there. Mine was frozen at the center back of the fridge where the water lines go into and out of the refrigerator. They have some foam in there as insulation which obviously got sweaty and wet, then froze. I thawed mine with a hair dryer after removing the little black door which has one screw, and then pulls off. Once cleared and to keep it from ever happening again, I took an approximately 2 ft piece of 14 gauge copper ground wire, and zigzagged it about 1 inch of length so there were four widths of wire laying flat in about 3/4 in wide. The rest of the wire I left hanging out with the hoses so it would conduct enough heat in there to stop this from ever happening again. I also coiled it up a little to make it more tidy. I took photos but I can't post them here. This might be another video you could do though to help the obviously gazillion people with this problem. I can't believe this video has 134,000 views already. You would think that would be enough for Samsung to fix this on what was not a particularly inexpensive refrigerator

    I shot hot air from my Bissell steamer directly into the water filter area and it shot out a ton of water at me once the ice blockage let go. Left the water filter in some hot water for about thirty minutes and it finally let go as well.
    Now to figure out how to stop the fridge from fridge from freezing over. If this fridge didn't come with this house and we're house poor I would have taken this thing and thrown it away already. Hate Samsung.
    We've already tried replacing the gaskets on the back of the evaporator cover and spray foaming the back of the coils. Guess what's next is the extra defrost heater?

    Thank You for your video. If I had had ANY idea that Samsung was such a PIECE OF CRAP I would have NEVER bought my SILVER LEPHANT. I have to defrost the ice maker about every 3-6 weeks, depending on the humidity, because it blocks up where the ice trips down into the tray/ice box. I used to take it all apart but then tried simply putting a hair dryer in the fridge icemaker box (remove the ice container) for a few 5 minute intervals on low heat. Within 3-4 times it was working fine again. DON'T use high heat, you will melt the plastic. I call this PIECE OF CRAP our SILVER ELEPHANT..... In the meantime my Mothers 80 YEAR OLD FRIDGIDARE is STILL working fine with ONLY ONE touch up charge in it's entire life. It literarily outlasted my mother. My brother kept it for extra food stuff. UNBELIEVABLE..... This is a $2800 piece of JUNK. BTW, there IS a class action suit against Samsung that they simply ignore. How nice of them...

    2) insert the 50ml syringe(filled with water) into the water container hole
    3) press on the button sensor (beside the container location) to simulate(or bluff the fridge) that u had put back the container
    4) when u hear the fridge pump machine sound
    5) compress your syringe to fill the water pipe(in the fridge) with water. some water will leak so prepare a cloth to wipe
    6) Voila. done.

      For those that still need clarification… The tool goes completely on the blue water hose, behind the red piece and the clear check valve thing. You push against the red thing towards the clear check valve and the hose will pull right out.

    How does the water get to the dispenser? I cannot track the blue tube, it doesn't show up inside the housing on top of the right door. Can anybody help?

    How do you pull out the refrigerator? It's heavy and doesn't bulge?

    How do I put water in it so it makes ice

    • @100griffin
      @100griffin  3 года назад

      It has to be hooked to a water line. Ours has tubing that connects to a faucet in the wall behind the fridge.

    How do you know it’s not the water valve?

    • @100griffin
      @100griffin  2 года назад +1

      Remove the part of the hose as shown in the video and thaw it. If water comes out when the button is pressed, then the valve is working.

    Aren't you bypassing the water filter then?

    • @100griffin
      @100griffin  3 года назад +3

      No, it's only bypassing a part of the path that goes above the icemaker. It goes through the filter way before that. It's filtered before it leaves the back of the fridge.

    Good video, but my Samsung french door water dispenser was actually shut off due to the child lock being activated. I replaced the filter, and no water. I pushed the child lock button for 3 seconds and voila! The water now dispenses!

    The reason they run the tube through the ice maker is to cool the water for you to drink. Now you will have warm water.... I guess it's a trade off.

      we add ice most of the time, but yes, the first bit is not quite as cold
