DA47-00243K Defrost Bimetal Thermostat Replacement Part Compatible with Samsung Refrigerator, Replace DA47-00243B DA47-00243C DA47-00243J 2025696 AP4403832 PS4140510

This thermostat is working okay on my Samsung refrigerator model RF267ABRS. The temperature setting button is off by several degrees though -- it's colder in the refrigerator than the setting button reads. But that's an improvement over it freezing things regardless of the temp setting, which is what it did before installing this replacement thermostat. I have to set it to 42 degrees to get it to be close to 38 degrees inside. On the top shelves are about 39 when it's at the 42 degree setting. The bottom back of the refrigerator is colder, usually 34 degrees. So it mostly fixed the 'too cold' problem, not perfect but good enough for now.

Got this for less than the oem brand and it solved the problem! Feels like good enough quality and was super easy to install.

This is a piece of hardware that has little to non information about it. Since your searched for it, I assume you have a Samsung fridge that has frosted up in the back panel. You can see the chunk of ice growing out from the openings in the back for air circulation, the fan was frozen, and mold can grow if leave food items in the fridge!Supposedly, the heating element should have heated off the ice/frost. Why it didn't? There are three possible reasons, one is the thermostat, the other is the heating element, that is more expensive and a little bit harder to replace, the third would be the control board and if it's the third, I think it's time to get a new fridge. Guess I am the lazy kind of person so I don't bother to take everything apart and measure them using a multimeter; rather, I just replaced the thermostat first. And it worked. :)

Combined with a new temperature sensor this fixed the problems with my Samsung French Door icing up and not cooling properly.

Then thermostat worked and now my refrigerator is working

I had my fridge freeze on the evaporator in the back of my fridge and I needed this part in order to fix it. Ordered the part and installed it after removing all the ice buildup. After 2 weeks I noticed no more ice forming. This product saved me from having to buy a whole new fridge. If you are handy, its not hard to replace this part.

Looks like the original. Still works well after a couple months.
