Anyone got a Samsung American FF recent model?

Long storey, last Friday, we took delivery of a Samsung American FF with dispenser and had to take the freezer door off to get it in the kitchen. No problems with that whatsoever.


Put the door back on OK and then started to connect up the wiring connectors. I connected up two pairs with their unique matching Male and Female partners. Then the next two connectors went in to their unique matching connectors under the hinge cover. Oner of these was obviously for the beeper. Because each pair is unique in terms of size, shape and number of pins, there is zero possibility of a mismatch.


This left one terminal wire (with its 5 pin connector) that had no apparent corresponding connector.


I raised this question with Samsung and after 3 contacts have not had a sensible answer from them. They want me to pay £114 for their installers to visit.

£114 is outrageous considering their technical support line cannot answer a simple product query, so I'm looking for someone else who has a similar model Samsung. Mine is a RS68A8830S9 but I guess any RS68 with a dispenser will have identical wiring.

All it would take is to lift the small plastic cover above the freezer door hinge and have a look.


Anyone?

My first hit on a search for Samsung RS68 maintenance manual was https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/model/RS68N8240S9/EF/ which seems to have some service manual for download. For human advice, there's a still active Usenet group uk.d-i-y where you might find someone helpful. It, and a large archive of previous (though text-only) threads, can also be accessed on the Google groups portal at https://groups.google.com/g/uk.d-i-y.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls.
