My Samsung RFG297AARS Refrigerator suddenly started forming chunks of ice in the ice bin. It was caused by a small amount of water intermittently dripping from the ice tray during the water fill portion of each ice making cycle. In this video I show how to remove the ice tray, the ice maker unit, do a complete disassembly, apply silicone sealant, and re-assemble. Two weeks after the repair, the ice maker continues to work perfectly again.
If you’re not sure whats wrong with your particular ice maker, and you don’t want to deal with troubleshooting like I did, a replacement ice maker is a very good option, and costs about $122 on Amazon. Installation is extremely easy, and takes a DIYer about 10 minutes to do.
Here's the video instructions on how to replace the ice maker with a new one. https://youtu.be/uSEG6xdyK4I
