Samsung 24.8 Cu. Ft. Side-by-Side Refrigerator with Thru-the-Door Ice and Water - Black - Page 6 Questions & Answers
Samsung SRS583HDP fridge not cooling. Side by side
Most likely the thermostat in the fridge, especially if it read 5 degrees until you reset it. Possibly the compressor in the fridge side as this fridge has twin cooling, or the circulating fan in the back of the fridge is frozen, which is a common problem as well.
Easiest things to try is to see if the fan is frozen and check if the fridge cooling is actually working. Turn off the fridge, remove the shelves, remove the 4 screws that hold in the bottom cover and the 2 screws that hold the water tank in. Cover should then come out a few inches. Reach behind and unplug the 2 plugs and pull out the cover. If the cover doesnt come out easily it may be glued to the back of the fridge by ice. Leave for a couple of hours and gently prize it off. Check for ice around the fan and that the fan spins freely. You could try sitting the cover inside the fridge, plug it in turn it back on for a few minutes (be careful) and then open the door and quickly look / listen to see if the fan is still spinning (it stops when you open the door). Leave the fridge off for a while until the ice disappears off the coils. Turn back on for half an hour. The coils should be icy again. Anything else call Samsung. If the deal in your country is the same as mine the fridge has a 2 year warranty but in the fine print the sealed compressor unit has five years on parts only. You could get the unit replaced for labour costs only. Check your warranty card.

Samsung SR-42NMB fridge leaking!
This is caused by a blocked defrost drain. The cold air for the fridge is vented from the evaporator behind the freezer. Once every 24 hours the defrost timer, stops the compressor and applies power to a heater at the freezer evaporator coils. The defrosted water drips and runs to a drain normally into a metal tray on the compressor where it evaporates. On my GE fridge freezer there is a hose and a small p-trap at the rear. Easy to remove, soak in bleach and hot water and then flush through. Help for Samsung drains in the link.

Samsung RFG298 is not cooling enough
Check to make sure that the door seals on the fridge are not torn or weathered or dirty or loose or broken at all . if the seals are dirty they can cause gaps that big enough to let warm air in which do have an affect on the cooling. If you see any dirty seals or frost build up around the gasket clean them right away and allow your refrigerator up to 24 hours to regain proper temperature again. If it is still not working then you should have a person that fixes fridges to have a look at it.

Samsung is not defrosting.
It will either be a fault with the Defrost Timer, or the Defrost Heater. Samsung have a different approach
If the defrost sensor fails to shut off the defrost heater, the fuse will blow in order to shut off the defrost heater. If the defrost sensor fuse blows, the defrost system will not work, and the refrigerator will not defrost. ... If either the defrost sensor or fuse does not have continuity, replace the defrost sensor.

Samsung RC21DCNS fridge side not getting as cool as the temp outside claims
Wow, longest post for a long time Dom!
The defrost heater is electronic, so working on the water can't affect it. Blowing compressed air into the water supply could affect the water filter in the fridge, but not the electrics.
Based on the fact it is 15 years old, and the fact it is a Samsung who are more famous for mobile phones, I would say it is time for a brand new Hotpoint, Electrolux or Bosch from Curry's or Sainsbury Homebase..
