Great video. Short and to the point. I have this exact refrigerator and the freezer is not freezing. Called a repairman and he told me that it's the compressor. This repair is a total of $600.00. I contacted Samsung and the part is under warranty. Wish you were close to Dallas.
@@munchingmakenna5776tell me about it same exact fridge compressor went out warranty for compressor not digital compressor is 5 years digital is 10 I’m past the warranty 1 month exactly Samsung won’t help won’t honor warranty past the 1 month
Looks like at least the second time the compressor is being replaced. Factory compressors don't have charging valves on the compressor low side stub and on the filter drier. I still have a 30+ year old Amana refrigerator with the original compressor, still running. Looks like hell but the food stays cold and the freezer side keeps food frozen solid. I just brush out the condenser coil for maintenance and have only replaced the condenser fan for repair.
Hello. I want to ask you how do you braze the compper from yhe compresso and the condenser metal tube. Thanks. What kind of rod do you used please. Thanks
Would this be the same process for the Samsung 4 door flex family hub? It has the touch screen. I have one that is missing the compressor I think a floor model and that’s what the person said I needed for it. I’ve purchased the compressor and it looks just like this one in your video. Only problem is getting someone that wants to do it
@@TopAppliancesrepair I'm in houston give me a call 7139929630. I've got a samsung twincooling that the compressor is rattling. What do you charge to replace?
This is awesome, thanks for doing the video! Do you know approximately how much you'd charge clients (I'm in CA so probably too far away for a TX job ;)
Fairly good, however he kind of glossed over the important step of pulling a strong vacuum--how many inches of vacuum and for how long??, also didn't talk about issues regarding oil… Does oil need to be added with the Freon charge? Does the compressor come with all the oil that it needs?
This must be a warranty repair. Most people would toss the fridge and buy a new one. I see beautiful expensive appliances collecting at the local recycle center/landfill transfer station, but they have warning signs all over saying not to take the junked appliances. Such a shame as most could be easily fixed and last decades more.
Yeah. We just found out are Compressor needs to be replaced $1,500. Screw Samsung. Never again. I will call the company and see if the warranty will cover it. The service tech said they cover it for 10 years. We will see!
Toss this away ?? its a freaking almost $4000 fridge and complete crap, i have my condenser inside the fridge leaking already, so luckily im a handy man, im about to re soldier all that
So do ypu not need to add refrigerant through the high side I've done 6 of these so far and have been addi g through high side for 2.5 ounces then the rest on the low?
Mine just quit working after only 14 months could take up to two weeks to get a new one if it’s the compressor.$850 repair 10 warranty on parts my credit card has product protection so hopefully covered.
Having the same issue here and had to call them multiple times in order to see whether my unit is still under that 10years warranty or not, but the thing is, that 10years only for digital inverter compressor. I have exact the same model on the video. Is it digital inverter compressor?

How old is you fridge? I am dealing with the same thing

I have exactly issue. Bought the unit June 2018. The compressor died last month. Samsung won't help.
When you added refrigerant do you add all at one time or add some wait a little add some more and so on with refrigerator running?
Do you need to replace the filter dryer when installing the replacement compressor?

It seems that Samsung is approximately the worst refrigerator for reliability.
@@myndexresearch yep and LG
Very clear and thoughtful explanation on replacing a compressor. Great job.
I am wondering when the oil should be added? I didn't see you add the oil. Thanks,

I'm in houston give me a call 7139929630. I've got a samsung twincooling that the compressor is rattling. What do you charge to replace?
what kind of burner tip do you have where to buy one ?
Should the freezer fan run when FF is selected in diags? My fan works with 12v DC applied, but not seeing it run when it's installed.
yes, I really like your video. thank you. It gives me an understanding of what my technician would most likely do. I can now make informed decision.
what kind of solder are you using? How much oil do you add when replacing the compressor in a Samsung RF28R6201SR fridge?
He's not soldering; he's brazing.
This is awesome, thanks for doing the video! Do you know approximately how much you'd charge clients (I'm in CA so probably too far away for a TX job ;)
What kind of freon was used to fill the system, R-600a?

@@LittleJosie Did Samsung over it?
Samsun. Junk
How much do you charge to change one of those i got one that needs to be replaced
So do ypu not need to add refrigerant through the high side I've done 6 of these so far and have been addi g through high side for 2.5 ounces then the rest on the low?
Looks like one of my lines is aluminum and is connected to a compressor via compression fitting. Can I solder it the way you have done?
Yea you just need Flux

solder wire did you use? And should I use any paste with it?
Good video brother how do you put 3 way valve in home position and why not vacuum both low and high side thanks 🤙
It's a closed loop, it doesn't matter where you vacuum from
You put in home by pluging it in.
@@jacobwood2187 thank you 🤝
Nice usage of nitrogen especially to make sure cap tube is not plugged.

Hey leslie, did you ever get it repaired? I am having the same problem right now with the exact same model. Thanks ahead of time.
@@equest943 and @LeslieNguyen, I am having the same problem with the same model. Anyone know how much this repair should cost?
I'm in Richmond Texas. My sealed system went out. Can you replace it for me?
Very good vid, it's too big a job for me. I'll just let a svc tech replace mine that completely stopped working recently.
Did u remove gas before remove comp?
Of course
It would be nice if you tell that what kind of gas you charging in it and compressor's specs etc.
Says on the label of the shipping box. R-134a.
Missing the vacuuming step.
How can I realize that My compressor is bad? I have de same compressor not working!
Great Job Thank you for the video
Nice video!
very well done, nice video!
Need this done im in conroe tx
Who does this in Arizona. Do you know? My Samsung is doing the same thing.
A&e appliance
I need your help
Thanks.👍🏾
WHY WHAY THE VERY SPEED IS NOT NESCESARY WHY?????
I need to do this myself I’m spending too much money on repairing refrigerators
What is the average cost of a new compressor?
on eBay these things seem to be going for approximately $200 each
2:44 Good job ))) this video is NOT teaching anything
cuanto cuesta ese trabajo
Change filter drier next time.
Mines just went out fuck Samsung anybody know where I can get this compressor
This is not the ideal process.
You're not soldering the lines; you're brazing the lines. Big difference.
