Samsung Refrigerator Dispenser Control Board
Repair Instructions:
The dispenser control board regulates the dispenser system components. If a single dispenser function fails, an individual part is likely defective instead of the board. With one non-working feature, first test all associated dispenser parts like switches, actuators, solenoids before considering control board failure. This isolates the malfunctioning component. Only replace the board if multiple or all dispenser operations fail, indicating a board problem.

Samsung Refrigerator Dispenser Funnel Guide
Repair Instructions:
The dispenser funnel guide is a small plastic piece located inside the freezer door on Samsung refrigerators with ice and water dispensers built into the door. It surrounds and guides ice from the internal ice chute into the external dispenser funnel where ice is accessed. If the dispenser funnel guide cracks, breaks, or falls out of position, it can interrupt the flow of ice through this crucial junction point. Without the dispenser funnel guide properly funneling ice into the door dispenser, ice can back up in the internal chute or fail to exit the freezer compartment. This would prevent ice from being dispensed through the door even though the ice maker is still producing ice inside the unit.
How to Replace Samsung Refrigerator Dispenser Funnel Guide
Access the Dispenser Area:
- Locate the dispenser area on your Samsung refrigerator and clear any items or obstructions that might hinder access to the funnel guide.
Identify the Funnel Guide:
- Consult the user manual or search online to identify the specific location of the dispenser funnel guide in your Samsung refrigerator model.
Remove the Old Funnel Guide:

Samsung Refrigerator Auger Motor
Repair Instructions:
The auger motor is a small electric motor located in the freezer compartment of Samsung refrigerators with automatic ice makers. It drives an auger, which is a corkscrew-shaped part that rotates to transport ice from the ice maker to the dispenser. When you select ice on the dispenser, a sensor triggers the auger motor to turn the auger and move ice through the chute so it can exit the dispenser. If the auger motor fails or becomes damaged, it will no longer be able to move ice through this mechanism. As a result, ice may build up in the ice bucket and chute but will not be able to advance forward to the dispenser. Even though the ice maker can still produce ice, the auger motor malfunction prevents the ice from being dispensed.
How to Replace Samsung Refrigerator Auger Motor
