Power outgage and when the power came back could'n reset the control panel
Samsung 8888 Display Panel.
To reset, press, Energy Saver & Display Panel buttons, simultaneously, and hold for 10 seconds. A beep will occur. The refrigerator will run diagnostics from there. Replace all your favorite settings.
No worries the refrigerator defaults to preprogrammed cooling and freezing after the power comes back on. Your water dispenser and the rest of the extras are dependent on the command prompt display. I placed these directions in copy within the pages of my favorite cook book. Never to be without the solution again.

Press the Power Freeze and the Power Cool button at the same time. Hold for 10 seconds and the digital panel reset.

Hi b_marquis,
To reset the unit just hold down the Power cool and Power freeze button for about 10-20 seconds. This will reset the machine and it should start again.
Hope it helps.
Thank you for using FixYa.

mine did the same thing. It was the mother board.
and guess what? they don't sell that motherboard anymore.
I will never buy Samsung again!
SOURCE: After a power outage, the control panel on front
The control board went into self diagnosis when the power was applied. It found an error in one or more of the systems. You will need a qualified technician to come out and see what the problems is. To bypass this problem for now, press the "Super Freeze" button and the "Super Cool" button together for 6 seconds simultaneously. This operation will put the refrigerator back to normal operation till the power is interrupted again. Good luck.

NOTE: This
is a multi-solution answer since I don't have all the tech from your question to pinpoint your problem
But the solution is in here generically, if you read and study the solutions very,very carefully.
First I would check cold control. Thats where you turn it off, if your temp is not warm. it can
be defective and not shutting off. If your temp is warm proceed with the following.
I would check the fan in the freezer. Listen to see if it is running
It moves air to the ref from the freezer
Then check to see if FREEZER CONTROL is turned WARMER WHICH MAKES THE REF COLDER AND VICE-VERSA. SEE?
The ref. temp should be about 33-35
The Freezer temp should be 0 to 10 Any thing below these temps is overkill and a waste of elect
The higher the number you turn it up to is the coldest
But is probably a common defrost problem The ice build up
is not being melted by the defrost system.The fan can't blow through the coils into the fridge.
Take out back panel of freezer to check for ice buildup. The coils should be clean.
There are three components to a defrost system- a heater,heater thermostat, and a timer unless you have a defrost electronic card.
Its best handled by a Technician but you could possibly do it by taking your model number to the nearest appliance parts store and asking for the parts. They are mostly located in freezer ,behind back panel on freezer coils.except the card which is usually located in ref The parts store will have info
Also check fan undernearh Ref in the rear
Clean condenser coils underneath
Make sure back cover is on the fridge. Some take them off and throw them away.
make one out of cardboard if its gone, using the holes of the old one.

STOP PAYING FOR EXPENSIVE WATER FILTERS FOR YOUR REF. DO THIS====

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WATER SPLASHING IN FREEZER AT ICEMAKER
THE FILL TUBE IN BACK OF REFRIGERATOR CAN SLIP
AGAINST THE FILL RESERVOIR CAUSING A PARTIAL BLOCKAGE
OR BECOME CLOGGED WITH ICE.
REMOVE THE ICEMAKER AND INSPECT THE FILL TUBE.
RUN WATER IN TUBE TO ELININATE BLOCKAGE AND CHECK
TEMP IN FREEZER. IF TEMP IS BELOW 0 DEGREES, THATS
OVERKILL AND USUALLY A WASTE OF ELECTRICITY TO KEEP IT THAT COLD, NOT TO MENTION THE FILL TUBE FREEZING UP
