Samsung RF28R6201SR/AA-00 refrigerator Parts

Common problems we see with the Samsung RF28R6201SR refrigerator include ice maker issues (no ice or no dispensing), warm fresh food temperatures, water leaks, door closing problems, and unusual noises. Start by checking settings and airflow, then follow the model’s troubleshooting steps in the RF28R6201SR owner's manual.

Most common symptoms and what they usually point to

• Ice maker not making ice: water supply issue, ice room freezing up, or an ice container problem
• Ice not dispensing: jammed ice, frozen chute, or auger drive issue (often tied to the dispenser mechanism)
• Fridge too warm: blocked vents, dirty condenser area, or evaporator fan/defrost airflow problems
• Leaking water: clogged drain path or drain components, or water filter housing connections
• Noisy operation: condenser fan noise, evaporator fan noise, or vibration from leveling
• Door won’t close/open smoothly: hinge alignment, gasket sealing, or bin/shelf interference

Quick checks we recommend first (10 minutes)

1. Confirm temperature settings and allow 24 hours after changes.
2. Make sure vents inside the fresh food section are not blocked by food containers.
3. Check door closure: drawers fully shut, bins seated, nothing preventing the gasket from sealing.
4. Listen for where the noise comes from (rear bottom vs. inside back wall).
5. Look for water source: under crisper area (drain) vs. near filter area (filter housing).

Parts that commonly relate to these symptoms

Symptom	Commonly involved part	What it affects
Ice won’t dispense	Refrigerator auger motor assembly DA97-12540G	Drives ice through the dispenser
Warm fridge temps	Refrigerator fresh food evaporator cover and fan assembly DA97-12608B	Circulates cold air in fresh food section
Leaking inside fridge	Refrigerator drain cap DA67-01301A	Helps manage defrost drain flow
Noise from rear bottom	Refrigerator condenser fan motor assembly DA97-15765C	Moves air across condenser coils
Temperature swings	Refrigerator temperature sensor DA32-10104V	Feeds temperature data to controls

Why it matters

These symptoms often share root causes (airflow, defrost drainage, and ice room conditions). Catching them early helps protect food temperatures, reduces ice maker freeze-ups, and prevents recurring leaks.

For the Samsung RF28R6201SR refrigerator, the overall size is typically about 35 3/4 in. wide and about 70 in. tall, with depth varying based on whether handles and hinges are installed. For the exact configuration measurements for your kitchen cutout, confirm the spec table in the RF28R6201SR owner's manual.

Dimensions by configuration (what to measure)

Depth changes the most depending on what is installed. Use the configuration that matches how your refrigerator will sit in the space.

Configuration	Width	Height	Depth
With hinges, handles, and doors	35 3/4 in.	70 in.	36 1/2 in.
Without hinges and door	35 3/4 in.	68 7/8 in.	29 3/8 in.
With hinge and door, no handle	35 3/4 in.	70 in.	34 in.

How we recommend measuring your space

• Measure the opening width at the front and back (walls are often not perfectly square).
• Measure height to the lowest cabinet or soffit above the refrigerator.
• Measure depth to the wall and note baseboards, water line clearance, and outlet location.
• Plan for door swing clearance so bins and drawers can open fully.
• Leave airflow space per the clearances listed in the RF28R6201SR owner's manual.

Why it matters

Using the right “with handles” or “without handles” depth prevents common fit problems like doors hitting an island, drawers not pulling out, or the cabinet face not aligning with the refrigerator doors.

The model number label for your Samsung refrigerator is typically on an interior wall of the fresh food (refrigerator) compartment, often along a side wall near the crisper drawers or near the ceiling. Confirm the exact label location and format in the RF28R6201SR owner's manual.

Where to look on the refrigerator

Check these common label locations first:

• Inside the fresh food compartment on the left or right side wall
• On the ceiling area inside the fresh food compartment
• Along the frame just inside the doors (door jamb area)
• Behind the crisper drawers (you may need to slide drawers out)
• On the back exterior panel (less common, but possible)

What you should write down

For parts lookup and ordering, we recommend recording the full ID information exactly as printed.

• Model number (for this unit: RF28R6201SR)
• Version code or revision (often shown after the model)
• Serial number (helps match production changes)
• Any barcode or additional code printed near the model/serial

Model number vs. serial number (quick guide)

Item	What it’s used for	Example format
Model number	Matches the correct diagrams and parts list	RF28R6201SR
Serial number	Identifies the specific unit build	Letters and numbers
Version/revision	Helps match updated parts	Suffix or extra code

Why it matters

Samsung refrigerators can have small production changes that affect fit. Using the complete model and any version code helps us match the correct parts the first time, whether you are replacing a door gasket, temperature sensor, or dispenser component.
