“Dishwasher smelled terrible and wasn't cleaning well. Needed a new wash motor and full internal cleaning. Runs like new now.”

Samsung refrigerator ice maker not working is a known issue affecting RF28R series. Our technicians specialize in Samsung-specific diagnostics and repair.
Our Sub-Zero fridge stopped cooling right before a dinner party in our Noe Valley home. The technician arrived within two hours, diagnosed a faulty compressor relay, and had it running perfectly before guests arrived.

“Double oven — lower unit wasn't heating evenly. Replaced the bake element. Would have liked a Saturday appointment but weekday worked fine.”
Samsung refrigerator ice maker not working is typically caused by frozen water line or failed water inlet valve. Samsung-specific factor: ice maker freeze-up in bucket area (class action settlement applies). Repair costs $100-$350 with free diagnostic and 90-day warranty.
Ice maker freeze-up in bucket area (class action settlement applies)
Auger motor failure — ice forms but will not dispense
Water inlet valve calcification restricting flow to ice maker
Ice maker fan duct icing over due to warm air infiltration at door seal
Control board relay sticking — intermittent power to ice maker heater
Other Samsung models may also be affected. Book a free diagnostic for confirmation.
Seeing one of these codes? It likely indicates ice maker not working.
Sacramento hard water (180+ ppm TDS) calcifies the water inlet valve feeding Samsung ice makers within 18-24 months. The valve solenoid DA62-00914B struggles against mineral buildup, producing undersized cubes before failing completely. We recommend installing an inline filter at the supply line during repair.
Remove ice bucket and inspect for solid ice block at back wall — indicates class-action freeze-up defect
Force ice maker test cycle: hold test button on maker 8 seconds until chime, watch for water fill and harvest rotation
Measure water inlet valve flow rate — should deliver 7 oz in 7 seconds at 20 psi minimum
Check ice maker wiring harness at control board connector — Samsung DA96-00942A harness prone to brittle failure
For the common freeze-up defect, the technician installs Samsung kit DA82-02367A which reroutes the defrost drain and adds an insulation pad behind the ice maker. The repair takes about 60-75 minutes. For inlet valve failures, the valve swap is 20 minutes but the technician also flushes the supply line and checks water pressure at the refrigerator connection.
