My name is Ben. I run a used appliance store in Central Ohio. When I started learning about appliances, I had no mentors to help me because everyone in the area basically had retired. I learned everything I could from YouTube, and found out a few things were missing, so I decided to start a channel to share some things I've learn to help others fix their appliances!

Samsung Refrigerator Secondary Heater Kit
A Final Fix for One of Samsung's Biggest Fridge Failures - The Dreaded "Ice Ball" That Causes Leaks, No Cooling, and More!
ATTENTION!!!
Please DO NOT order this kit if you're in a country that uses 240v electricity, as it can melt/catch your fridge on fire or worse your house. For the 240v Overseas Kit (Click Here)
This kit is designed to potentially fix the following problems on a Samsung French Door Refrigerator (although it could work on other styles as well):
Refrigerator Cabinet Not Cooling Properly (due to ice build-up)
Refrigerator Cabinet with Water in Drawers
Refrigerator Making Noise due to Ice on Evaporator Fan
Refrigerator Ice Build-Up inside Refrigerator Cabinet
Please note this does not replace any part in your refrigerator: If you have a broken fan, or bad defrost heater rod, this will not fix those parts, and they will need replaced. If you have tried all the other "Solutions" to resolve any of the 4-mentioned issues and its still persisting, then a secondary heater kit is likely the solution.
Included in the FULL kit:
Silicone Defrost Heater - 18" / 15-watt model and 24" / 20-watt model, 3ft Power Cord Length. Power cord can be cut down to size needed, heat probe is bendable/foldable and is extremely flexible to custom fit to a needed solution, but cannot be cut.
14-16 AWG Posi-Tap Connectors
10 High Temperature, 6" Cable Ties
11 mil vile of Dielectric Grease to waterproof new electrical lines + wooden applicator
The Moisture Kit Includes:
Samsung Defrost Drain Probe DA61-06796A
30" x 2" HVAC Tape for Liner & Evaporator Panel Repair
Insulated Tape for Drain Pan / Drainage Kit Update (1pcs at 12" for water routing under drain pan) And 2 pieces at 6" for behind the evaporator. Instructions are included but there is a link at the bottom of the page just in case.
Samsung Drain Tube Kit (DA97-04049E) - To replace the older, cheaper and usually broken Samsung OEM drain tubes with a fresh, revised drain tube set.
Included in the HEATER ONLY kit:
Silicone Defrost Heater - 120V, 20 Watts, 36in Heater Length, 3ft Power Cord Length. Power cord can be cut down to size needed, heat probe is bendable/foldable and is extremely flexible to custom fit to a needed solution.
14-16 AWG Posi-Tap Connectors
10 High Temperature, 6" Cable Ties
11 mil vial of Dielectric Grease to waterproof new electrical lines + wooden applicator
Compatability: This kit will work with all "French Door" Samsung refrigerators EXCEPT certain Flex Door models. The only known model that is incompatible is the RF23J9011 unit. If you are unsure if this kit will work with your flex-door Samsung, please contact us with your model# to confirm.
Now with a 240v choice for our overseas shoppers.
Overseas orders will have the 120v heater swapped for the 240v.
Note: For International orders in countries using 240v electricity, we will ship the 18" heater probe only, as it is the only style we have in that voltage. US/CA customers can choose either 18" or 24"

Yes, you can kill a Speed Queen. This came in for service due to a destroyed bearing. It was destroyed just outside of the 5yr warranty.
Why? Customer never ran a cycle with a tub cleaner in it, ever, and kept packing it full of mud causing it to fail. Even the best goes bad without care. Make sure to run a rub wash every month- it would have prevented a multiple hundred dollar job. Good news is its fixable with a new bearing kit.
