Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought for a samsung rs265t fridge with a faulty heater element in the existing ice maker. If your samsung freezer has the 12-pin ice maker plug, this is the right one to order.
There are 3 x screws securing the ice maker and it has an electrical connection behind the interior wall. No more ice cubes were being made.

Broke even quicker than the last one. Fedex says it’s still in transit.
