I have an old french door samsung, worked for over 10 years and started ice buildup, so far I found the thermal fuse is blown and the temp sensor is not working either. but it has not had any ice buildups before that. What I noticed is the defroster is WAY bigger 244watt vs 100-120watt that comes on the newer ones, so that prolly helps a ton. Will see if replacing the fuse and sensor solves the problem if not I'll prolly get the secondary silicone heater. The fridge was cheap and its a fun project (not my only fridge, but once fixed will replace mine)
Well, so far, but I was out of town, and my wife said she heard the fan making a little noise again. I may have to add an extra heater, which is what I'm hearing some people have had to do.

Thanks for your comment
Samsung refrigerators ... boycott buying them ! and any other samsung products . $ money talks .
Only reason I bought this one was because it was only 250.00. I normally wouldn't purchase Samsung.
Problem is simple its a samsung junk 😢
Samjunk 😂
Did this work?

I'm going to check and make sure my heater is working first.

Did you melt off the ice?
