DA41-00676J Refrigerator LED Light Review

Intro

The DA41-00676J LED light board from Rsoise is sold as a compact, drop-in replacement for certain Samsung refrigerator light modules. The listing emphasizes quick installation, a small printed circuit board footprint (20mm x 30mm), and compatibility with part numbers such as AP6000168, PS11732779, and EAP11732779. On paper this reads like a low-cost, fast repair option for a dim or dead interior fridge light — but buyer feedback repeatedly calls out non-functioning units and very short lifespans. This review walks through what the listing actually claims, how the part is likely to fit and function, what owners report in real use, and the practical checks to do before you buy.

What it is / first look

The listing positions the DA41-00676J as a refrigerator LED light board for Samsung models. Key listing facts to bookmark:

• Model / part numbers: DA41-00676J; listing says it replaces AP6000168, PS11732779, EAP11732779 and 110729.
• Size: the board is listed as side: 20mm * 30mm (0.79in * 1.18in).
• Included components: the listing specifies a cover is included.
• Configuration / form factor: described as Compact; installation type listed as Freestanding.
• Specification met: CE (the listing shows this under Specification Met).
• Seller claim: “Easy to Install” and that installation can be completed in about 10 minutes by placing the LED board into the existing shell.

Color is listed as W—the listing does not expand on that shorthand. Image filenames and the product photos suggest a white/neutral finish for the board and cover (see the color section below).

What's in the box

The listing states the unit ships with a cover. It does not list additional mounting screws, wiring harnesses, or adhesive — so assume the design is to slide the board into an existing light housing and reuse the fridge’s original wiring and mounting hardware. If you need replacement clips, screws, or a new housing, the listing doesn't specify that they are provided.

How the listing describes fit

The product description repeats compatibility with Samsung and claims the PCD board size will fit into the existing shell, allowing a straight swap. The copy again notes slight measurement tolerances may exist because dimensions are measured manually.

In daily use

The listing promises a quick swap — remove the old light board and insert this replacement into the shell. Manufacturer copy and the bullet points both say this replacement can be installed in about 10 minutes. That makes it attractive for someone who wants a no-fuss, inexpensive repair without calling a technician.

By fridge type

Single-door and compact refrigerators

Because the listing is categorized under beverage-refrigerator replacement parts and lists a compact form factor, this board is likely intended for smaller internal housings. The seller’s explicit compatibility callouts target Samsung refrigerators through part-number replacement rather than a long list of model numbers, so the safe approach is to verify the part numbers on your existing board or service manual before buying.

Full-size refrigerators

The listing doesn’t enumerate full-size Samsung model numbers. It lists the replacement part numbers; if your fridge’s original part number matches one of those listed, the listing suggests it will be compatible. If your refrigerator’s light module has different dimensions, mounting points, or requires additional wiring/connector differences, the listing does not specify compatibility or provide guidance.

Installation and real-world reliability

Installation is presented as simple: slide the board into the existing shell and reconnect. That simplicity is consistent with many LED replacement boards designed to reuse the fridge’s housing and connector. The listing explicitly claims a ten-minute replacement time.

However, owners' feedback introduces a major caveat: multiple buyers report units that never worked or that failed within days. Critical owner comments repeatedly include phrases such as “didn’t work,” “brand new — didn’t work,” and “lasted only 3 days then died.” That pattern in owner feedback is the strongest signal in day-to-day use — while many units work as intended, the listing’s reliability record, as reflected in buyer reports, is inconsistent. If you plan to replace the light and expect long-term reliability, expect to do extra checks or keep the return option in play.

What the listing does not specify (important to know)

• LED brightness or lumens: the listing does not specify the light output or whether the color temperature matches the original.
• Wattage / electrical draw: no wattage or voltage details are listed.
• Connector type or wiring diagram: the listing does not describe the connector pinout or whether adapters are included.
• Warranty terms or expected service life: the listing does not specify a warranty length or rated lifespan for the LED board.

Materials & build quality

The listing focuses on compatibility and fit rather than materials. The only spec listed in the “Specification Met” field is CE, which the listing displays as a compliance claim. Beyond that, the listing does not describe the PCB materials, the LEDs used, soldering quality, conformal coating, or housing material.

What the listing does say and what you can treat as explicit:

• The board footprint is 20mm x 30mm as listed.
• Included components specifically list a cover.
• The seller brands the item as a “quality alternative” and emphasizes that the board is “perfectly suitable” to the common shell used for the referenced Samsung parts.

Owner reports provide the practical build signal: several buyers have returned non-working units, and some units reportedly failed within days. That pattern suggests variability in manufacturing quality control for this SKU — not every unit appears to meet the same standard. If build consistency matters for you, this variability is an important factor.

Safety considerations

From a safety standpoint, the listing includes a CE specification entry. The listing does not show additional certification details, electrical ratings (voltage/current), or installation warnings. Those gaps matter when you’re dealing with an electrical component inside a refrigerator.

Electrical fit and installation risks

The listing says the board plugs into your existing shell, but it does not provide a wiring diagram or voltage list. That means you must match the part numbers and the connector on your old board before attempting installation. If the connector or voltage is mismatched, there is a risk of shorting the board or causing it not to function. The listing suggests contacting the seller if problems arise.

Owner-reported functional failures

Multiple owner reports state the product didn’t work out of the box or failed in a few days. Repeated nonfunctional reports are not the same as a safety recall, but they are a red flag: a defective LED board could fail electrically. If the board is dead on arrival or fails quickly, follow the seller’s recommended support steps and return process. The listing explicitly encourages buyers to contact the seller when problems occur.

What the listing does not clarify (safety-related)

• Voltage and current ratings for the board are not listed. Verify those against your fridge's original board before swapping.
• Ingress protection or conformal coating details are not given; the listing does not say if the board is protected against condensation or humidity common inside refrigerators.
• No explicit warnings about handling the board or ESD precautions are provided.

If you’re not comfortable with small electrical repairs, consult a qualified technician or verify that you can return the item easily if the unit fails.

Who this is for / who should skip

The DA41-00676J listing targets buyers looking for an inexpensive replacement LED board for certain Samsung refrigerators. It’s suitable where the service goal is a quick, low-cost replacement of a burned-out or damaged board and where the buyer can confirm the part numbers match.

Who this is for

• Home cooks or renters with a fridge whose original part number matches DA41-00676J, AP6000168, PS11732779, EAP11732779, or 110729 and who want a low-cost DIY repair.
• People comfortable reusing the existing housing and wiring and who can visually confirm the board size (20mm x 30mm) will fit the shell.
• Shoppers on a budget who prioritize immediate replacement and are willing to accept some reliability risk in exchange for low up-front cost.

Who should skip

• Anyone who needs documented electrical ratings, a long warranty, or verified lifespan from the listing — those details are not provided.
• Buyers who cannot accept the possibility of short-lived parts. Multiple owner reports indicate some units fail immediately or within a few days.
• Users with non-matching connectors, unclear wiring, or an atypical light housing; the listing does not include adapter hardware or alternate connector options.

Colors and images

The product's Color field in the listing is marked as "W". The image filenames and product photos suggest a white or neutral finish for the board and cover. If color finish is important to you, verify the current listing or contact the seller; the listing itself does not provide a palette of color options.

• Available colors (from the listing/spec and product images): white

Verdict

The DA41-00676J LED replacement board is an inexpensive, compact option that the listing describes as an easy, ten-minute swap for several Samsung refrigerator part numbers. The part’s appeal is straightforward: small footprint, direct replacement for a handful of common part numbers, and a cover included. But buyer feedback repeatedly reports non-working units or very short service life, which lowers confidence in the SKU’s consistency and longevity.

If you need to get light back in your fridge and your original part number matches the ones listed, this is a low-cost option to try — but do so with caution. Verify compatibility, keep return options open, and be prepared to contact the seller if the unit is DOA or fails early.

Check before you buy (short checklist)

• Confirm the part number on your fridge’s old board — the listing explicitly replaces DA41-00676J / AP6000168 / PS11732779 / EAP11732779 / 110729.
• Measure the existing board footprint and confirm a 20mm x 30mm board will fit the housing; the listing provides that dimension.
• Check your connector type and wiring — the listing does not provide a wiring diagram or adapter hardware.
• Note that the listing says it includes a cover; confirm that you don’t need additional screws or mounting pieces.
• Be aware of owner reports about DOA units or failures in a matter of days and plan for the possibility of returning a defective item.
• Verify CE is acceptable for your region and, if you need electrical ratings, ask the seller — the listing does not include voltage or current specifications.

Overall, the DA41-00676J is a budget-friendly repair option with explicit compatibility claims and an advertised quick install. But with the pattern of early failures noted in buyer feedback, it’s best used when you’re comfortable managing replacements and returns, or when you need a fast, inexpensive fix and can tolerate variable longevity.
