Samsung RF29A9671SG/AA-00 refrigerator Parts

For the Samsung RF29A9671SG, the installation-space dimensions listed in our documentation are 35 7/8 in wide, 28 1/2 in deep, and 71 7/8 in overall height (with hinge). For planning a tight fit, confirm the exact clearance diagram in the RF29A9671SG owner's manual.

These measurements come from the installation clearance table for the RF29A9671** family (which includes RF29A9671SG):

• Width: 35 7/8 in (912 mm)
• Depth: 28 1/2 in (723 mm)
• Height (without hinge): 70 3/4 in (1797 mm)
• Overall height (with hinge): 71 7/8 in (1825 mm)

Even with the correct cabinet opening, we recommend verifying these common pinch points:

• Door swing clearance: make sure you have room to open the doors fully for drawers and bins
• Ventilation space: allow airflow around the cabinet so cooling performance stays consistent
• Flooring and leveling: a level surface helps doors seal correctly and prevents vibration
• Entry path: measure doorways, hallways, and turns; remove doors if needed
• Service access: leave enough space to pull the refrigerator out for maintenance

Using the installation dimensions (not just “overall” marketing dimensions) helps prevent problems like doors that cannot open far enough, drawers that hit walls, and poor airflow that can lead to warm temperatures or longer run times.

If you also need replacement parts while planning an install or refresh, you can order RF29A9671SG parts from the list for this model or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

To turn off cooling on your Samsung RF29A9671SG refrigerator without unplugging it, use the control panel’s Cooling Off (sometimes called Demo) mode. This stops the compressor and fans while keeping the lights and display powered; follow the exact button sequence in the RF29A9671SG owner's manual.

• The refrigerator stops actively cooling (no compressor operation).
• Interior lights and the display typically stay on.
• Ice production and water chilling can pause because cooling is off.
• Food safety matters: move perishable food to another refrigerator or a cooler if cooling will be off for more than a short period.

On many Samsung models, Cooling Off is entered by pressing and holding a specific button combination for about 5 seconds until the display indicates OFF. Because button layouts vary by revision, use your model’s instructions to confirm the exact keys.

Even in Cooling Off mode, you may notice some normal activity.

• The display and lights can remain on (this is normal).
• If you hear a fan, confirm the display actually shows OFF.
• Make sure doors are fully closed; door switches can affect what you hear.

Cooling Off mode is the safest way to stop refrigeration without cutting power; it helps during cleaning, moving the unit short distances, or servicing non-sealed-system parts while keeping the control board energized.

If you are turning cooling off because temperatures are unstable, a failed sensor can cause incorrect cooling behavior; the refrigerator temperature sensor da32-10104n is one of the components that can affect temperature feedback.

If the bottom ice maker in your Samsung RF29A9671SG isn’t making ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being turned off, the freezer temperature being set too warm, or the water supply not reaching the refrigerator. Use the ice maker Test button and confirm the freezer is set below 0°F.

• Wait long enough after installation or a reset; ice production can take about 12 hours, and first-time use can take 1 to 2 days.
• Confirm ice making is turned on (Cubed Ice or Ice Bites, depending on your setup).
• Set the freezer temperature below 0°F (-18°C) (or -4°F (-20°C) in warm ambient conditions).
• Make sure the water stopcock is open and the water line is installed correctly.
• If the ice bucket has melted and re-frozen cubes after a power outage, empty the bucket to clear jams.
• If you have not used the dispenser for weeks, check for ice clumps or a jam in the bucket.

Your RF29A9671SG ice maker has a Test button on the bottom of the ice maker.

1. Press the Test button.
2. Listen for the chime when you press it.
3. Listen for a second chime; that indicates the ice maker is operating properly.

For the exact location and steps for your configuration, follow the RF29A9671SG owner's manual.

If water flow is weak or intermittent, ice production drops quickly.

If you need a replacement filter for this model, use Samsung refrigerator water filter HAF-QIN and follow how to replace the water filter in a Samsung refrigerator. You can also order parts from the list for your model or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.

An ice maker depends on three things working together: freezer temperature, steady water flow, and a clear ice path. Fixing the root cause prevents repeat jams, buzzing, and inconsistent ice production.

Bottom ice buildup in your Samsung RF29A9671SG freezer almost always happens when defrost water cannot drain away and refreezes on the freezer floor. Clearing the drain path and correcting air leaks at the door seal stops the recurring ice sheet.

• Defrost drain restriction: Ice, food debris, or sludge blocks the drain so meltwater pools and refreezes.
• Drain tube or cap issue: A loose, cracked, or mis-seated drain part lets water spill into the bottom area.
• Door not sealing: Warm, humid air leaks in and creates excess frost that turns into meltwater during defrost.
• Airflow problems: Overpacked drawers or blocked vents can overcool sections and increase frost.

1. Unplug the refrigerator and remove the freezer drawer/bins.
2. Melt and remove the ice on the freezer floor (use towels; a hair dryer on low works if kept moving).
3. Clear the drain opening in the back/bottom of the freezer compartment; flush with warm water until it flows freely.
4. Inspect the drain parts for damage or poor fit; replace if needed.
5. Check the door gasket seal: clean it with warm soapy water and confirm the door closes evenly.

If the drain path is damaged or not sealing correctly, these model-matched parts are typical fixes:

When defrost water refreezes at the bottom, it can block drawer movement, reduce airflow, and force longer run times. Fixing the drain and seal restores normal defrost drainage and steadier freezer temperatures.

For vent locations, drawer removal, and care cautions (including not blocking air vents), use the RF29A9671SG owner's manual. If you need to order drain parts or other freezer components, use the parts list for this model or search by model number on Sears PartsDirect.
