I had posted a couple of weeks ago about the above unit freezing up at the fresh food evaporator cover.
I want to thank everyone that responded with advice to help us out with this unit.
I had taken off the fresh food evaporator cover and defrosted the evaporator, steamed the defrost drain out, replaced the evaporator fan motor. The unit ran about 2 months and froze up again.
Per the adviser had given me I ordered the whole cover, it came with the fan complete.
Thanks again.

Some of the Samsung boxes have a duckbill like the Maytag/whirlpool bottom freezer and may not steam out completely.
If having a reoccurring problem with ice buildup remove the rear panel and check the drain / drains.
Add a longer heat sink to the fresh food evaporator heater if having an ice buildup in fresh food drain hole.
In this case I have a turkey baster in my tool bag and I did flush it with hot water after steaming it.
Samsung was doing that also. Does the Whirlpool kit (W10619951) to replace the duck bill, work also on the Samsung?
