Samsung Refrigerator Ice Build-Up and Leaking Water Inside Drawers - How to Fully Fix it Forever

Опубликовано 24 августа 2020 на канале Bens Appliances and Junk

If your Samsung Bottom Door Freezer Refrigerator has developed a water leaking problem where water gets into the crisper drawers, then this video is the ultimate fix for you. Additionally, if your refrigerator cover gets frozen in ice and you can't figure out how to remove it, this video will show you the fix. Both of these problems are related to each other, and you likely want to fix both problems at the same time in one big fix. This problem of the Samsung Refrigerator freezing up is a VERY common problem that really hasn't had a *GOOD* fix until recently. The kit used in video: *DISCLAIMER*: This video involves splicing electric lines into your refrigerator. Make sure the electricity is turned off on the fridge when dealing with electricity, such as installing/splicing the secondary heater in. You'll need to turn it on to run the forced defrost mode, however, which is safe to do with the evaporator panel moved to the side (but plugged in for fan/ect) The goal of this video is to: * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator that has Ice on the Evaporator Panel * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator that has Ice on the Evaporator Coils * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator with Ice Ball on Evaporator Fan * Fix Samsung a Refrigerator that Leaks Water into Drawers Many people have thrown away their refrigerators or had to have technicians come to attempt to fix the problem multiple times with usually rocky results. If you do both installations together, you should correct just about any problem relating to your Samsung Refrigerator leaking water into drawers, as well as the ice build upon in the refrigerator. At the end of this video, you will have successfully understand how to install a Samsung Drain Kit into your refrigerator (how to install #da82-01415a) as well as how to install a heater into your Samsung refrigerator. How to force your Samsung Refrigerator into Defrost Mode: Update: Since making this video, I've seen a lot of people use this fix, successfully buying all the items mentioned below. I found a company that build me a custom-made heater for these refrigerators, so viewers didn't have to spend the $80-100 that Amazon is now charging for everything (the heater, the drain kit, the ties, and drain kit). I've packaged the heater with ties and connectors for sale at this link: If you use the code "YOUTUBEKIT", it takes an extra 10% off the order, and basically contains all the Amazon parts below except for the drain tubes (which will be available soon). Items I used in this video: * Supco SH502 heater: * (Alternate) Supco SH201: * 3M Tap Connector: * OR instead of Tap Connectors, I've had really good luck with Posi-Taps (no tools, faster): * Ties: * Drain Kit: * Silicone Sealant for Connections: * Irwin 9-in-1 Multitool (takes apart just about any major appliance), $: * Frost King FV30 Foam Tape: DISCLOSURE: This post may contain affiliate links, meaning when you click the links and make a purchase, we receive a commission.

seems like you could just remove those exterior drain hoses altogether.

Ben, you saved the day. Your explanation was comprehensive and concise. You saved me at least a $150 service call and helped me do it myself. Thank you very much.

I will never buy another Samsung appliance as they have not bothered to get the proper fix out there.
I believe the extra added heater has not been approved by Samsung but I do believe it is a good fix.
I will install it on all 3 fridges.
Also the drain kits.

Great video
I have three of these fridges
And just did this to one . We will see if it works.
Also last year I wrap the top and side lines with bubble wrap and ducting tape. When I did this upgrade I had to remove this and it worked there was no ice but I had not fixed drain properly and it froze causing it to freeze up.
Also My ice box freezes up do you have a repair for that?
It happens on all three units

This is awesome and I am confident I can do it. Thanks.
My question is have you tried the double insulation to see if it works well enough.

Thank you so much for this detailed video. I feel confident that this is beyond my capabilities, but this is good to know, because, otherwise I would have felt bad for not trying. Any suggestions for brands that are better?

My refrigerator is 5 years old and rear panel has been replaced 3 times and has broken again. Samsungs service is worthless. I will never buy another Samsung product

Hi Everyone, my drain hose was clogged up and I was able to clean it up however when I pour water down the fridge to test that there is no more gunk inside the hose, water comes out thru the hose and from above where the hose meets the fridge. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I need to do?

These Samsung Twin Cooling refrigerators are just a poor design by Samsung. It’s basic refrigeration technology that somehow escapes a big experienced company like Samsung with a huge R&D department. About 10-12 years ago I purchased a lot of Samsung appliances, a over-the-range microwave, a dual cavity electric range, a front load washer & dryer (w/ $$$ pedestals) and a 4 door French door twin cooling refrigerator. Every single Samsung appliance product has been total garbage. The door micro switches failed in the microwave, the drum support (spider arm) corroded away in the washer & don’t even get me started on the horrible electric dryer, limit switches, thermostats & heating elements every 6-8 months since new. Their customer service is criminal at best. I would NEVER buy another Samsung product ever again, not an appliance, not a tv, not even a phone, ever again. Total Junk.

Does this work on any Samsung model that is having this problem? I replaced my drain clip with the longer one and it was working great again for about a week. Now it’s building ice and leaking water again. It’s just a matter of time before I’ll have a ball of ice again I’m sure. Just nervous about splicing the wires.

Hello Ben
Very helpful videos on the Samsung refrigerator. I will have to look into the drain kit and extra defrost kit.
Thank you. The Samsung documentation is not helpful.

Any tips on removing the cover? It feels like the ice is so bad it's stuck. The styrofoam won't come with the cover when I pull it.
