Fitment & FAQ

Is this the defrost sensor I need with the secondary heater kit?

Not always - many Samsung French door models take DA32-10104N instead. Send us your full model number before ordering so you get the right sensor.

What's the difference between DA32-00006W and DA32-10104N?

They work the same and use the same harness connector. DA32-00006W has the longer lead (about 16 inches vs about 7 inches), so pick the one that reaches your plug.

The sensor wire on my replacement is too short. Is this the longer one?

Yes - DA32-00006W is the longer-harness version, used where the sensor mounts far from its plug, such as the upper-right of the evaporator on the RFG298HDRS.

How do I test this sensor with a multimeter?

Measure its resistance and compare it to a temperature/resistance chart. This part reads about 5000 ohms at 77°F, so it won't replace a sensor that reads around 370 ohms.

Is this a universal sensor that fits any Samsung fridge?

Nearly - Samsung refrigerators use a similar-style defrost sensor, but the lead length varies by model. Contact us with your full model number to confirm.

Does this replace DA32-00024W or DA32-00070A?

No - it isn't a direct replacement for DA32-00070A, and models that use DA32-00024W need that part instead.

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 RF263AEBP?

Yes - the RF263AEBP is listed as a model that uses part DA32-00006W.

Will this fit a RFG297HDRS?

Yes - the RFG297HDRS is listed as a model that uses part DA32-00006W.

Description

A Recommended Addition to the Samsung Heater Kit

One of the more pertinent items that technicians will replace when installing the drain kit and secondary heater kit is a new defrost sensor, as replacing it takes approximately 1 minute with the evaporator cover panel off.

If the existing defrost sensor is off-specification, it could reduce the defrost time of the refrigerator, causing some of the icing conditions that the Samsung refrigerator is notorious for.

Always confirm that this piece is compatible with your refrigerator prior to purchase. However, this specific sensor is compatible with almost all Samsung French-door refrigerators and side-by-side units.

Can also be used to replace the DA32-10104N if they're out of stock.

Working so far.

Just installed yesterday, Along with the secondary heater kit. Seems to be working well. Instructions could be a bit clearer about where to mount the defrost sensor. Instead of a blue circle on a picture maybe show where to actually mount the defrost sensor and the orientation.

Kit to stop Samsung evap from freezing

I found Ben on YouTube and am so impressed at the comprehensiveness of his instruction and the quality of the kit. I would not have had enough confidence to fix my fridge myself otherwise, and would have paid many times the cost of repair to have someone else do it. Value and convenience are nothing short of tremendous.

If you have a Samsung Fridge, just do it!

Our fridge was a solid brick of ice under the back cover. Assumed we would need to replace it. This sensor and the secondary heater kit completely fixed the issue. Like a new fridge!

Great product and still working.

Good job Ben's for putting all of these components in one place! Install was straightforward. If you are doing this be very careful when removing the cooling panel thingy- it is fragile and I broke the Styrofoam when removing. I used the heat tape they provided to fix!!!

Samsung should reimburse for prior and current repair. Samsung engineer's know how to design their products to fail.

High quality stuff.

You can tell this guy has done this repair himself before and knows exactly what you need and doesn’t cut corners. It’s all there and it completely solved my problems for my rf266 series Samsung ref.

Grateful

I am so grateful I found your repair video and kit on YouTube. Installation is very straightforward thanks to the video and resolved the ice buildup issue we were having and that could not be resolved after multiple repair calls. Thank you so much for at the very least delaying the purchase of a new fridge!

Quick delivery.

Repair kit was delivered promptly and as described. I will give a review of the product after installation. I am waiting until it freezes up again before installing. We know it will.

Samsung fridge repair

I am so thankful that you guys came up with this kit. I had tried the 1 piece fix for the drain flooding and freezing a few years back. Of course the problem came back and I'm so glad ya'll could help me replace more parts to get a better fix. I do still have a small amount of water in the main fridge compartment, but I feel it is greatly reduced. I can tolerate that. Also, I really appreciated the new drain pipe fittings. Yes mine were in terrible shape and probably part of the problem. I am a 66 year old female DIYer and I love finding the videos and parts I need for my projects. Thank you so very much for everything. You saved me the cost of a new refrigerator.

Part was great. Didn’t fix our problem.

I already did a review, but I’ll do another one. We really like Ben’s YouTube videos they’re very thorough but our fridge is just a bad model and we went on a trip came home and the fridge was warm again for the third time so we’re buying a new one. We learned a lot from him though.

Works great!

It was relatively easy to install. Although my Samsung refrigerator is now banished to the garage, at least I didn’t throw it away and it’s operating fine - serving overflow duty.

Easy repair

Well my Samsung fridge stopped keeping things cold. It was cool but felt too warm to be at right temperature. After I YouTubed it, I found out why it wasn’t working. The rods in the bad were covered with ice making the fridge think it was colder than it actually was. Luckily there was Ben’s appliance website attached to the video. Between the video and quick delivery I was able to fix my fridge in no time. Highly recommend Ben’s Appliances for repairs.

Sensor review

No instructions for where this item should be installed. It is still in the bag. The heater kit came with a sensor, which I used, but when ordering the heater kit this additional sensor was recommended. I don’t know where it goes. Emailing to the website got no response.

Great upgrade

After watching some YouTube videos I decided on this kit to hopefully repair my Samsung fridge. The original problem was that it would ice up and block the fan, requiring a complete teardown and defrost every six months. So far its been installed for about a month, so time will tell. Everything looked top qualify and worked after function testing all components.

Good info, right part

Thanks for helping us with this problem! The replacement heater is here, and I look forward to completing the repair. Great communication too.
