Samsung RS model fridge ice maker not filling with ice. QUESTION: I reset the ice maker on my Samsung RS Refrigerator as it was not working properly. I am not getting any ice cubes. The ice maker tray does not fill with water. I used a blow dryer on it to apply heat to the water line. This was to melt any ice that
may have formed in the water line. This did not work as the ice cube tray still does not fill with water. Is my Samsung refrigerator problem a possible clogged or bad water valve? Does the water line pass through any sort of filter between the valve and the ice cube tray besides the main water filter in the fridge itself? Do I need to call a refrigerator repair company? Should I contact Samsung Refrigerator
Support? Any help you can provide me will help. Answer: Samsung issued a bulletin for this exact NO ICE issue for Samsung RS263T, RS265T, and RS267T refrigerators. Samsung says the water line within the freezer door can freeze. Samsung states to check the orange water line at the front bottom of the refrigerator and see if the water line is frozen. It tells you to disconnect the orange water line and blow air through it. If no air comes out from the end, it tells you to replace the freezer door. However, replacing the door is expensive, some Samsung refrigerator owners simply replaced the orange water line with new and re positioned it and then wrapped it with insulation tape.
