Samsung Refrigerator Fuse Block Replacement

Introduction

Go to step 1 ↓

This guide shows how to remove and replace the fuse block or fuse board in your Samsung refrigerator.

The fuse block contains a number of fuses soldered on a circuit board and is made to be replaced as a whole unit. If your refrigerator doesn't power on at all, you may need to replace the fuse block.

This guide will work for most Samsung Refrigerators. This guide is based on a model RF28R7201SG Refrigerator. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
