[HELP!]Samsung Refrigerator is freezing all food in refrigerator regardless of temp setting. appliancerepair

Model: rb195bssb

Symptom: Freezing all food in refrigerator compartment regardless of temp setting

Troubleshooting performed:

  • First time I did a 72 hour unplug defrost. Turned it back on, set temp at highest setting (46) and waited. Worked great for about 1 week.

  • Also vaccumed out around the compressor, it was really fine.It worked great for about a week, when it happened again. It happens fast when it happens.

  • This time I found some forums with some insight, popped off the interior rear panel and discovered that the coils were iced. See picture.

  • Attempted to do a force-defrost mode but wasn't able to make sense of the output or hear anything kick on. Front door temp says 46 actual temp around 10-12 degrees.

My thoughts: I assume it's the control board, the evaporator, or a thermistor. I'm electronics savvy and have a good set of test tools if someone can assist with the process.
