I'm having issues with our Samsung RF24FSEDBSR fridge freezer.
Does anyone have a service manual for this model that they could send over please?
Looking on the net I can only locate the user manual which is about as useful as a chocolate fireguard
Seems like this model has inbuilt problems and there is a class action lawsuit against Samsung in the States.
Thanks in advance
Here you go Frank, took a little rootling around to find it but.... a pdf

Brian....you are a star. Here's a link to some virtual doughnuts....on me :D
Al...I'll be sure to keep my out for the class action in the UK ;)
I did email Samsung but they replied that they only give the manuals to their own service guys and they gave me a link to the user manual....doh!! Or the chance to book an engineer visit lol
They'll be selling you double glazing next. ;)
Samsung has the worst reputation at my hot end.
LG is my favorite, not Chinese, runs on R-134a.
I realise how you feel I've got a double door American style but bloody Samsung I ended up fitting a dual stage dixel controller been fine since and the ice dispenser runs off a k40 stat I do smile every time one of my daughter's come in with ice
Had to strip down the Fridge section again at the weekend to carry out a manual defrost with the trusty hairdryer - (well, I don't need it any more for my head ;)).
Found that the inline thermal fuse had blown again, preventing the defrost heater from being powered up.
I find it strange that the thermal fuse is rated at 5A, has a circuit fail temp of +73C and it is the second one to go open circuit. I can't imagine that the top section of the evap where the fuse holder is attached has reached +73C or that the fuse has overheated so much. The defrost heater is rated at 120W and pulls 0.54A.
Anyone have any suggestions on an alternative failsafe to replace the inline thermal fuse?
Hi, Frank.
The defrost termination sensor should be the cause of your woes - can go bad intermittently. and make sure the new fuse does not get positioned too close to the heater

Glad to help, A common DA32-00006W will get you trough till it arrives.
Hi Frank.
I don't know how far you have got?
But I googled the Part number Twisty very kindly supplied ( Rep Point Added) and found the
following very helpful link.
