Samsung fridge power dead
Samsung side by side with bottom freezer drawer less than 2 yesrs old. Sudden, complete loss of power (we were taking stuff out a moment ago) as if it was unplugged. No lights, button sounds, LED display, compressor hum, nothing. Checked breakers and outlet. Can anyone help?

Plug a table lamp or small appliance into the receptacle to see if it works.
If it doesn't.... you'll need to post the model number for the fridge.

I cannot locate any service info on it. I'm still looking. I see that it's an inverter type fridge but that board should not cause a full dead problem.
Remove the bottom kick plate. Look up inside there. You are looking for a tech sheet. A mini service manual. It will have diagnostic routines on it plus a basic wiring diagram.

Thanks. It looks like there's something wrong with the receptacle, wiggling it hard turns power on and off. So it's got to be the wiring. Replacing it when when I get back from Lowes.

Many thanks for your help. A wire to the outlet was off the screw, apparently making enough contact until it slipped of, probably from a door slam. There were some burn marks from arcing so I'm glad it happened, otherwise I wouldn't have known. Now to move all that food back from the garage fridge!
