My freezer is on the bottom and it keeps building up frost. Any idea why? Just started about 2 weeks ago.

for frost to start appearing in a bottom freezer, indicates that the draw seal is not sealing properly or the draw is not closing fully
after 3 years it may need an adjustment of the rollers and slides to get the draw sealing better again
call in a service technician as it should be still under warranty

Ice maker ice jam

Not a whole lot you can do but to keep the frost down.
If you are able to move the items in the freezer to another freezer and let it sit overnight, all your problems will melt away....
Until a couple months later when it builds up

Make sure to double check your freezer is sealing correctly, bad gasket causes moisture to be sucked in.

Here are some basic ways to slow the buildup

MY SAMSUNG FRIDGE FREEZER WORKS FINE FOR A WHILE THEN IT WILL TURN ITSELF OFF FOR MAYBE AN HOUR OR TWO AND THEN TURN BACK ON AGAIN THIS HAPPENS ON A REGULAR BASIS ????

So, is this a problem? Does it allow frozen items to thaw? Frost free freezers work by going into a heat cycle about once every 20 hours or so for about 20 minutes; your model may be defrosting too long. During defrost, the compressor is off, and a heater is on inside the coils of the freezer. This melts ice built up on the heat exchanger. It might be normal for your model to be off for up to an hour if there is heavy frost build-up. Are the doors shutting and sealing correctly? A bad seal on the freezer door will allow frost to build up quickly.
Some of the Samsung models connect to your home network and allow the power company to put them into power save mode when necessary--this might be what your's is doing, but there is a panel indication when this happens.

Defrost not working heavy ice build up around coils

Hi

Frost is a natural occurrence on the evaporator coils in the freezer compartment of your refrigerator. To prevent frost buildup, a self-defrosting refrigerator warms the coils using a defrost heater several times each day to melt away the frost. This frost melts into water and flows out of the compartment through the drain. If any part of the defrost system is not working properly, the result can be heavy frost buildup that may affect the cooling capacity of the refrigerator.

The defrost timer is a mechanism that tells the defroster how long to run to melt the frost. The limit switch measures the temperature in the freezer and helps to maintain it, while the heater is the key element that melts the frost. Any one of these components could need replacement at a given time, which will result in this over-frosting.

We have heavy frost in the freezer of our Samsung refrigerator. What can we do?

Hello and Welcome to FixYa!

The heavy frost is basically due to the frost build up on the evaporator coils. You can't see these coils without removing/opening the panel on the inside of your freezer. A sure sign that there is a build-up is the presence of any frost or ice build-up on the inside walls, floor, or ceiling of the freezer that is exactly the thing you quoted. Such a frost build-up usually shows a problem in the self-defrosting system or damaged door gaskets. This refrigerator is supposed/designed to self-defrost approximately four times in every 24 hour period. If one of the components in the self-defrosting system fails, the refrigerator continues to try to cool. Eventually, though, so much frost builds up on the evaporator coils that the circulating fan can't draw air over the coils. There may still be a small amount of cooling because the coils are icy, but with no air flow over the coils, cooling in the refrigerator compartment is quite limited. Here's an inexpensive, though inconvenient, way to determine if the problem is with the self-defrosting system. Remove all of the perishable food from the refrigerator and freezer, turn the thermostat in the refrigerator to Off, and leave the doors open for 24 to 48 hours. (Be sure to have several towels ready in case the melting frost and ice causes the drip pan to overflow). This allows the refrigerator to defrost "manually." When the frost and ice build-up has completely melted away, turn the thermostat back to a normal setting. If the refrigerator then cools properly, it indicates a problem with one of three components in the self-defrosting system:

The defrost timer The defrost thermostat (usually a bi-metallic switch) The defrost heater
Also you need to clean the dust, lint from the condenser unit by using a condenser brush or a vacuum cleaner to remove all the dust from the unit (it is usually located at the back of the refrigerator). If it still does not cool properly, there may be a problem with the refrigerant level or the compressor or in severe case it might be the main CU mal-function. If the problem still persists and the above quoted techniques/tips didn't work,You may need a qualified appliance repair technician to further diagnose the problem.

Best of Luck,
