Description

If your evaporator cover becomes too waterlogged, has styrofoam damage, or has cracked severely, replacing it is very important. Without the evaporator cover being in good working condition, air won't flow through the vents properly, or can store moisture during defrost, icing up the evaporator fan, or causing the refrigerator to leak.

This assembly replaces both the entire panel AND the fan as one unit.

Questions & answers

Does this include the evaporator fan?

Yes - this assembly replaces the entire panel and the fan as one unit, and it includes the shelf rail and the foam insulation behind the metal, like the original.

Is this a genuine Samsung part?

No - it's a new (not rebuilt) compatible replacement made by Choice Parts Manufacturing, not a Samsung-branded OEM part. It may carry part number DA97-12609CCM.

What are the dimensions?

It measures 17 inches wide and 25.5 inches tall.

When should I replace the evaporator cover?

Replace it if it's waterlogged, cracked or the styrofoam is damaged. A bad cover can block airflow and hold moisture that ices the fan or makes the fridge leak.

What's the difference between this DA97-12609C and DA97-12608A?

They fit different Samsung models, and the main difference is length. For example, the RF261BEAESR uses this DA97-12609C, while the RF23HCEDBSR uses DA97-12608A.

Does this cover fit every Samsung French door refrigerator?

No - Samsung uses several cover sizes. Models such as the RF25HMEDBSR, RF26HFENDSR and RF28HMEDBSR need a different cover, so contact us with your full model number first.

Will a new evaporator cover alone fix frost building up behind it?

No - for frost buildup the secondary heater kit with moisture kit is also recommended. Replace the cover as well if it's waterlogged or the foam is damaged.

How do I check if it fits my refrigerator?

Type your full model number into the fit checker on this page or find it in the compatible model list. Not listed? Contact us with your model number.

Will this fit a RF263BEAESG?

Yes - the RF263BEAESG is listed as a model that uses part DA97-12609C.

Very flimsy parts and cracked immediately

I purchased this cover parts and tried to replace my existing cover, but when it was applied, some portion of the new cover immediately cracked. Later I could figure out that my problem was the fan, so I removed the fan from the cracked new cover and replaced the fan of my old cover and put my old cover again to the fridge. This could solve the issue. I could have saved some money if I had purchased only the fan... but anyway all the videos uploaded by Ben about Samsung fridge were very useful and I could learn a lot from them, the purchase process including shipment was very smooth, and maybe the flimsiness of the parts can be from the manufacturer, so I give 3 starts.

Samsung Refrigerator Evaporator Cover and Secondary Heater Kit

I was very pleased with the evaporator cover and the secondary heater kit to fix the frost issue with my Samsung refrigerator. I installed it almost 3 weeks ago now and all the temperature and frost issues are gone. Working great. Thanks for the parts to fix and videos to install it. Saved me a lot of money by not having to buy a new refrigerator.

Samsung Refrigerator Evaporator Cover DA97-12609C Perfect Replacement

Fast shipment. Fits better than the previous replacement cover I got from Samsung. This fridge had a chronic icing problem which results in broken styrofoam if you're not careful. Installed Ben's secondary heater kit and so far so good. Ben's videos are great and helped me with this and also a 5C error indicating defrost sensor problem. Sure enough,the sensor was open. Replaced and so far so good. Thanks Ben.

Just what I needed just in time.

Second time re-visiting my Samsung abomination of a refrigerator. Its looking like this may have been part of the initial problem in frozen drain line and no fan action due to freeze up with no thaw out. So far so good. The new panel went in well and all is as it should be for now. Thanks so much for being on Utube and having good info available.
No, I MEAN it! THANK YOU! Its a nerve wracking thing to have your cold box crap out on you leaving only images of money flying out the window to slap your face. The website clearly explained what to do and how to do it...makes anyone feel like they CAN fix the issue without dumping a truckload of money out for repairs. I sincerely appreciate it! You ROCK.!
