Our 6 year old Samsung french door refrigerator has an ice build up problem on the back wall.
It looks like it originates from the open ovals located near the center of the back wall. We melted the ice away and replaced the door gaskets (even though they did not look bad). We vacuumed any dust away from the base of the refrigerator while we had it pulled away from the wall. There was very little dust to pick up. The ice started to build up on the back wall again overnight. We live in southern California so high humidity is not common. Today it is 16%...
A little over 6 months ago the heater water tube that feeds water to the icemaker in the bottom freezer drawer needed to be replaced (I had replaced the ice maker and still no ice was made so we called for Authorized Samsung repair service). It was VERY DIFFICULT for the technician to remove this tube from the back of the refrigerator. Literally the tube finally came out of the refrigerator after some extreme pulling, but it was INSIDE OUT (the outside of the tube did not come out until the inside came out. It has been 6 months, but I do not know if this extreme pulling could have damaged something else and maybe causing the ice build-up problem?
