There isn't one. If you had a brief power loss unplug it for 20 minutes and then plug it back in. It should restart. If this does not work.. Press the power cool and power freeze buttons for 8 seconds and then press the UP arrow to cycle through the menu. There will be horizontal and vertical dashes in the display if there are errors. NOTE the position of ANY dashes as they appear as there are actually 13 failure indicators via those various dashes. After the last menu the unit should restart. If it does not start after the menu wait 10 minutes to see if it restarts on it's own.

If you note dashes in the temp windows I need to know what window and what positon of the digital 8 indicator it was in. (upper, center, "top or bottom right and left sides" Top or bottom lines i.e exact digit as it would appear in a digital 8 display.

There are also things like the PTC relay, run capacitor or thermal overload that can cause this.
If you have no display at all.... your most likely looking at a control panel failure.

Thanks for choosing FixYa,

Refrig won't cool on either freezer or refrig side. Confirmed manual settings & allowed 24 hrs for cooling. Is there a reset switch somewhere other than manual switches inside refrig?

check that the compressor is working by feeling for motor vibrations at the compressor, hot compressor unit or hot fins or back wall of the fridge
if there is not heat then the compressor is not working
call a technician as it could be a start/run capacitor failed or compressor seized
get a quote as some compressor replacements cost as much as a new fridge
check that the utility power is getting to the fridge/freezer

Why is Samsung RFG297 is freezing in the fridge compartment

check the cold control thermostat with a meter for both OHMS and volts ( VOLTS is a live test with fridge plugged in so be careful) It must show 110 volts. An open or thermostat that reads infinity will not allow the proper cooling and defrosting cycles to operate and may in fact stop anything from happening as if there is no power to the unit?

ALSO CHECK THE AIR FLOW VENT SYSTEM and THERMISTORS At times it can get stuck to far closed or open. Some units feature a digital electric adjusting vent system while others are manually set. Check for any ice build up or other obstruction in the vent damper, see if u can manually open or close it. Some times when u have the settings set to the highest it closes off one area while allowing to much cold air flow to the other area!
THERMISTORS in the freezer and fridge section for continuity OHMS and for amount of OHMS current being put out. In most models around 13000 ( give or take 150 ohms) ohms is required

Fridge has been working great then this morning no power.

try plugging your refrig into a different outlet, or plug something else into the outlet the refrig is plugged into to verify power to the outlet.

My Samsung refrigerator will not cool

Call Samsung. I had the same problem when Best Buy delivered mine. The delivery people left the fridge in demo mode. The people at Samsung will talk you through it, it is very simple. The fridge should work fine then.
