How Samsung Ice Makers and Freezers Work
The ice maker has its own automatic defrost; Samsung tells owners not to defrost it themselves, and a sheet of ice over the ice maker or a stuck, frozen bucket calls for service. Source: Samsung US - Samsung ice maker is not working
Samsung Symptoms and First Checks
- 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 leaking. Check that the gasket between the ice chute and the ice bucket sits flush, since a gap melts ice and causes drips. Source: Samsung US - Water leaks in a Samsung refrigerator
The Samsung Ice Maker Test
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.
