    Samsung RFG298AARS - No Power- No codes

    Model Number: RFG298AARS
    Brand: Samsung
    Age: 6-10 years

    I have no display, no inside lights, no cooling-but, the 2 leds that light up the outside Ice/water dispenser are flashing.
    Tried several combos of holding the two 'buttons' - EnergySaver/Lighting, Power Freeze/Power Cool, Alarm/IceOff.
    Unplugged from outlet several times, allowing it to 'rest' before trying again.

    Cant find any similar symptoms on the internet.

    Any ideas? I am fairly adept at fixing electronics ,even computers, once I know where to start.

    For the price of a decent used car, this thing should have run for 20 years !

    Thanks

    ps. Wife says she noticed inside lights were off a couple of days ago.
    She thought it might have been an alarm reset for an open door, as she simply closed door and then everything appeared to be fine.
