Samsung RH22H9010SR/AA-00 refrigerator Parts

The Samsung RH22H9010SR is a 36-inch-wide, counter-depth side-by-side refrigerator with about 21.5 cu. ft. of total capacity. For planning fit, the RH22* cabinet depth is about 28 2/8 inches, with an overall depth of about 28 1/4 inches (dimensions can vary slightly by measuring method); see the RH22H9010SR manual for the full dimension chart.

Key dimensions to know

These are the most useful measurements when you are checking cabinet fit, door swing, and clearance:

• Width (B): 35 7/8 in.
• Cabinet depth (A): 28 2/8 in.
• Overall depth (E): 28 1/4 in.
• Cabinet height (C): 68 1/2 in.
• Overall height (D): 69 6/8 in.

Quick size summary (RH22* family)

Measurement	What it helps with	Approx. size
Width	Cabinet opening	35 7/8 in.
Overall height	Top clearance	69 6/8 in.
Overall depth	Counter-depth planning	28 1/4 in.
Capacity	Storage planning	~21.5 cu. ft.

Why it matters

Getting the “big” measurements right prevents common install problems like doors not opening fully, the refrigerator sticking out farther than expected, or not having enough airflow space behind the cabinet.

If you are troubleshooting cooling or the unit is not fitting correctly after a move, the RH22H9010SR manual also covers leveling and clearance guidance.

If your Samsung RH22H9010SR dispenses water but not ice, the most common causes are the ice maker being turned off, the freezer temperature being too warm (target 0°F), or an ice blockage in the bucket or chute. Start with the control settings and simple ice-path checks before suspecting a failed component. See the RH22H9010SR user manual for control panel and ice maker operating details.

Quick checks (fastest fixes first)

• Confirm Ice Maker Off is not enabled on the display.
• Make sure Control Lock is off (Control Lock disables both ice and water dispensing).
• Verify the freezer is set to 0°F and is actually freezing food.
• Remove the ice bucket; break up clumped ice and clear any jam in the chute.
• After reinstalling the bucket, press and hold the ICE button for about 6 seconds (per the manual) to help reinitialize dispensing.

Step-by-step troubleshooting for RH22H9010SR

1) Check temperature and airflow

Ice production slows or stops if the freezer runs warm.

• Set freezer to 0°F.
• Avoid blocking freezer air vents with bags or boxes.
• Give the unit time to stabilize after changes (several hours).

2) Run the ice maker test

On this model family, the manual notes a test button on the ice maker (right side). If ice is not coming out:

• Pull out the ice bucket.
• Press the test button once (do not hold it down continuously).

3) Confirm water supply conditions

Even if water dispenses, ice can fail if flow is marginal.

• Confirm the shutoff valve is fully open.
• Check for kinks or pinched tubing behind the refrigerator.
• If the filter indicator is on or water flow is slowing, replace the filter and reset the indicator.

Symptom	Most likely cause	What to do
Water dispenses normally, no ice made	Ice maker turned off or freezer too warm	Turn ice maker on; set freezer to 0°F
Ice maker makes ice, but won’t dispense	Bucket/chute jam or clumped ice	Empty bucket; clear chute; reinstall bucket
Water flow is weak at dispenser	Clogged filter or low supply pressure	Replace filter; verify supply valve and line

Why it matters

Ice makers are sensitive to freezer temperature and ice-path obstructions. Fixing a setting, airflow issue, or a simple jam often restores ice without replacing parts.

If your Samsung RH22H9010SR refrigerator is running but not cooling, the most common causes are incorrect temperature settings, blocked airflow inside the compartments, poor ventilation around the cabinet, or the unit being in Cooling Off (Shop) mode. Start with these checks before assuming a sealed-system failure.

Quick checks for RH22H9010SR first

• Confirm the fridge and freezer setpoints are correct (recommended: 37°F fresh food, 0°F freezer).
• Make sure food packages are not blocking the cold air outlets and return vents.
• Verify the doors close fully and the door alarm is not sounding.
• Check that the back of the refrigerator has enough clearance from the wall for airflow.
• Power reset: unplug for about 10 minutes, then plug back in.

Check for Cooling Off (Shop) mode

On this Samsung platform, Cooling Off mode can make the fans and lights run while the compressor does not cool.

To toggle Cooling Off mode on RH22H9010SR:

• Press and hold Freezer + Lighting + Fridge for 5 seconds.

See the exact button sequence and control panel details in the RH22H9010SR user manual.

What to inspect next (common “runs but won’t cool” causes)

If the basics check out, these are the most likely problem areas:

• Dirty condenser coils (heat cannot dissipate well)
• Evaporator fan not moving air (freezer may get cold but fridge stays warm)
• Defrost system problem causing heavy frost/ice that blocks airflow
• Temperature sensor or control issue (thermistor/control board)
• Sealed system/compressor issue (less common, but possible)

Parts that may be involved

If testing points to a sealed-system or compressor problem, the compressor used on this model is available as Samsung refrigerator compressor MKV190CL2BASH. Compressor diagnosis and replacement is typically a technician-level repair.

Symptom	Most likely area	Typical next step
Fans run, lights on, no cooling at all	Cooling Off mode or compressor not running	Exit Cooling Off; verify compressor operation
Freezer cold, fridge warm	Airflow/evaporator fan/ice blockage	Check vents, listen for fan, inspect frost
Both sections warm, cabinet hot at back	Condenser airflow/coils	Clean coils, confirm condenser fan airflow

Why it matters

A refrigerator that “sounds normal” can still fail to cool if airflow is blocked or Cooling Off mode is enabled. Catching those issues early can prevent food spoilage and reduce strain on the compressor.
