Introduzione

This guide shows how to remove and replace a broken icemaker assembly in your Samsung RF28T5001SR refrigerator.

This model's icemaker resides in the freezer compartment. The icemaker uses a twisting mechanism to loosen the ice cubes from the tray. Oftentimes, the plastic tray cracks from repeated operation and the mechanism won't release the ice cubes anymore.

Strumenti

Passo 1

Unplug your refrigerator before you begin your repair.

Passo 2

Slide the freezer drawer fully open.

Passo 3

Lift and remove all the freezer bins from the drawer.
You may need to open the refrigerator doors in order to remove the large bin.

Passo 4

A plastic tab locks each drawer rail in place.
Use a flathead screwdriver or your fingers to press in the plastic tab near the inner end of the drawer rail.
While pressing the plastic tab, grasp the rail with your free hand and slide it towards you slightly to unlock the rail.

Passo 5

Repeat the rail unlock procedure on the other drawer rail.

Passo 6

Once both rails are unlocked, firmly pull both rails to slide them out of the refrigerator wall guides.
Remove the freezer drawer.
To reinstall the freezer drawer:
Push the geared torsion bar until it rests at the very end of the rails.
Align the drawer rails to the refrigerator wall guides.
Close the freezer drawer until the rails lock back in place.
If you don't hear a click, visually check if the plastic tabs have locked in place. You may need to push the rails in a little further with your fingers to set the tabs.
