Description
Restore proper defrost cycle operation in your Samsung refrigerator with the genuine OEM thermal fuse part number DA47-00095E. This fuse protects the evaporator and defrost system by interrupting the circuit if temperatures exceed safe limits, thereby preventing damage to the appliance components. Because defrost systems and fuse placements vary by model and year, please check with your maintenance technician to confirm that DA47-00095E is correct for your appliance’s full model number and that the fuse is indeed the failed component.

-
Genuine Samsung part: ensures proper fit and reliable performance in compatible refrigerators. partsdr.com+1
-
Essential safety component: prevents overheating in the defrost circuit, helping protect the appliance’s evaporator and wiring. appliancepartspros.com
-
Cross-reference available: replaces/applies to older part numbers such as AP4136048, PS4140330. mccombssupply.com+1
-
Straightforward installation (once compatibility is confirmed): a wise repair option often much less expensive than replacing a full evaporator or control board due to a failed fuse.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement
-
The freezer is frosting over or the evaporator appears iced up—indicates the defrost circuit may not be completing. youtube.com+1
-
The refrigerator isn’t cooling properly, yet the compressor and fans seem to be operating normally—could be defrost system fault including a blown fuse.
-
You notice no continuity through the fuse when tested with a multimeter, or visible burn/damage where the fuse mounts.
If you notice these symptoms, consult your maintenance technician to verify that the thermal fuse is the root cause (rather than the heater, thermostat, or control board) before ordering.
Compatible / Partial Model Notes

Compatibility Notes
-
Matching your appliance’s full model number (including suffix) is crucial — even if the fuse looks identical, mounting, lead length or rating may differ.
-
Replacing the thermal fuse will only resolve defrost-related issues if the rest of the system (heater, thermostat, control board, wiring) is functional; technician diagnosis is highly recommended.
-
Installation steps typically involve removing the back panel in the freezer compartment, unplugging wiring, repacing the fuse, re-securing wiring and panel, then running a manual or automatic defrost test.
-
After installation, monitor the freezer for proper defrost cycles and ensure no excessive frost build-up occurs.
