Follow this guide to remove and replace the icemaker assembly in your Samsung refrigerator.
This guide will work for most French-door Samsung refrigerators where the icemaker is in the refrigerator compartment. If your icemaker is in the freezer drawer, follow this guide instead.
The icemaker assembly is a combination of parts that creates ice. Because of its design, the assembly is prone to freezing over, seizing up the ice making mechanism. If you try to run the ice maker while it's seized up, you may break it.
If your ice maker is frozen, follow this guide to defrost it.
Note: Even if you've followed instructions to defrost your refrigerator, you may need a steamer to aid in removing any leftover ice build up. You should use the steamer whenever necessary throughout the repair to melt any iced over areas.
Note: In 2019, Samsung updated the control board to address the defrost and drain issues related to the ice maker. This update should help reduce the tendency for the icemaker assembly to freeze up and break. If you bought your refrigerator before 2019, you may need to purchase the ice maker service kit (which includes the control board) rather than just the ice maker assembly, or your replacement ice maker may continue to develop issues.
This guide is based on a model RF28R7201SG refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
