FAQ

This clip is designed for Samsung refrigerators utilizing drain clip part DA61-06796A. Compatible models include RB195ABWP, RB217ABPN, RF217ABWP, RF217ABWP/XAA, and RF217ACPN. Because Samsung uses this clip across multiple refrigerator platforms, we recommend confirming your specific model number and existing part number before ordering.
This part is a direct replacement for part numbers DA61-06796A, AP5579885, PS4145120, EAP4145120, and 2683162. These identifiers are used interchangeably for this specific evaporator drain clip application on Samsung refrigerators.
This clip resolves ice buildup around the evaporator drain area. When the drain opening freezes, defrost water cannot flow to the drain pan, leading to frost or ice accumulation at the back of the refrigerator, water pooling under drawers, or recurring ice formation after a manual defrost.
This part is the correct solution if your Samsung refrigerator develops recurring ice near the evaporator cover or drain trough, particularly if the issue returns shortly after a manual defrost. It is recommended when the drain pan area shows heavy ice accumulation and the drain path is freezing shut.
Installation is a moderate repair that requires accessing the evaporator area inside the refrigerator compartment. You will need a Phillips screwdriver, a small flat-head screwdriver or pick for the clips, towels, and a method to melt existing ice, such as warm water. The repair typically takes 30 to 60 minutes once the refrigerator is emptied and the rear interior panel is removed.
Before installing the new clip, ensure all ice blockages are cleared from the drain trough and drain hole. Verify that the drain tube below is clear of debris. If you are experiencing severe or repeated frost issues, inspect the evaporator cover area and confirm that the defrost system is functioning correctly, as a blocked drain may be only one component of a larger system issue.
