I have a samsung refrigertor rs2555sl and my control panel stopped working after I turned the power off to the house (to install a light fixture elsewhere). There was one green light blinking on the refrigerator temp display.
Hold down the "power freeze" and "power cool" buttons at the same time for at least 8 seconds. This is a self diagnostic program. A number should appear on the refrigerator temp display (1-9)...it will hold for 30 seconds and then the panel should function again.
In my case the number that appeared was "3" which can indicate a multitude of things including a short circuit or power outage (which was it was for me).
Hope this helps!
I just had this same problem when I unplugged my rs2555sl to install a surge protector. The "Hold down the "power freeze" and "power cool" buttons at the same time for at least 8 seconds" diagnostic procedure was the solution. BTW: I bought my rs2555sl in 2003, and except for the ice maker, I haven't had any problems with it (knock on wood). I've had the ice maker service under an Best Buy extended warranty, but I understand that ice makers in side-by-side refrigerators are usually the flakiest parts.
Same issue. The front panel lights were off with only one blinking light working. This was after a heavy storm that caused multiple power outages. Holding down "power freeze" and "power cool" for approximately 10 seconds displayed code "3) after which the fridge started working OK.
Similar to the other comment I have replaced the ice maker twice already and it is still not working properly.

I have a samsung refrigertor RM25KGRS and my control panel stopped working after I turned the power off to the house (to install a light fixture elsewhere). There was blue light blinking on the refrigerator temp display.
Hold down the "freeze" and "Fridge" buttons at the same time for at least 8 seconds and then the panel should function again.

I don't have a solution, but a question...I just tried this 8 seconds solution, and I got a "3", Does this mean that I have to fix something? Or, just wait and see how the ref, reacts?
