Common Samsung Ice Maker and Freezer Problems
- Freezer not freezing. Set the freezer to 0°F or colder and allow up to 28 hours after a setting change before judging the temperature. Source: Samsung US - Cooling issues with Samsung refrigerator or freezer
- Ice maker frozen / ice buildup. Samsung says not to defrost the ice maker yourself, and a frozen-over ice maker or a bucket that will not pull out needs service. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
Testing or Resetting a Samsung Ice Maker
With the ice bucket removed on most models, press and hold the Test button on the ice maker until it chimes (up to about 10 seconds); one chime means it passed, several chimes mean it needs service, and no chime or movement calls for cutting power for 2 minutes and trying again.
