If you have a refrigerator or freezer that is leaking water and freezing on the bottom of the freezer or crisper compartment, the problem may be with ice forming in the drip pan and drain line. The evaporator coil in some Samsung refrigerators does not do an effective job in keeping ice from forming in the drip pan under the condenser coils. This causes the water to freeze and block the flow to the drip pan. The fix for some models is to install an evaporator clip that extends into the drain. This will not work for all models. If the clip cannot be installed, a Force/Fast Defrost can be performed periodically to prevent water from collecting and freezing in the drain line.
In this video, I'll unfreeze the line and show you how to perform a Fast Defrost to get the ice unplugged. My refrigerator could not be pulled out of its cabinet, so the back drain line is not accessible. For the best results, pull your refrigerator out and check the drain lines for any blockage. Also, be sure to unplug your unit before doing any maintenance. I was unable to do that for this video because I could not access behind the refrigerator. It is best to check your Owner's Manual and follow all Safety Precautions advised by your refrigerator's manufacturer.

Samsung makes horrible fridges, just horrible. My fridge has exactly the same issue. Did they ever tested it before mass producing it and putting it out on the market??? Faulty design all through out. The worst feedback possible. Wasted money on this fridge.

This was so helpful! You are a Boss Woman! I just checked and sure enough there is a layer of ice at the base of the freezer! Thank you.

Apparently this is a common problem so my question is...why don't they change the design?! 😊

Painful to watch you strip the bolts instead of using the correct tool
@maryjaneverdon4953

I have a GE Cafe presenting the same problem, fixed it a few times but the problem always returns. Ok, so we are customers who paid a lot of money for these refrigerators and now we should do this procedure every 2 months? Really? I do not find that acceptable. BTW a steam cleaner will help to melt the ice. Is this a case for a class action?

the issue is your drain tube and how it is made - that is the failure on all units

I have a different model but Samsung is known for this problem. My blockage was in the refrigerator section and exactly the same issue. Now I think I have it in the freezer. I ordered that part and was able to install it at the bottom of the fridge coil but it still didn't go down enough to stop the freezing. I probably took an extra month after adding the part before freezing again. I saw someone else who said just attach a few copper wires to the heat coil and make sure they go down into the hole a good inch or so. That was about a year ago and no more freezing in the fridge section. I'll be attacking the freezer section tonight. Good video but if it happens again put a few copper wires (without the insulation on them) and get into the hole. That should do the trick.

Yes, seen other videos, but it takes a woman to find the tricks like the syringe and two jugs one of hot water and the other the drain water. Great video thanks!

@user-lh3sv9ob1u
Excellent video superb presentation. It should be head of the search list as.most of the others dealt with sisebysides or just covered the upper compartment. so maybe retitle it so it comes up First in the search say remove bottom drawer and clear ice drain.
