DA97-12095C - Samsung Refrigerator Dispenser Lever

The Dispenser Lever (DA97-12095C) is a genuine part manufactured by Samsung for use in their refrigerators. This part is sometimes referred to as the ice or water dispenser lever, depending on its function in your appliance. The dispenser lever is compatible with a variety of Samsung refrigerator models.

The role of this part in your refrigerator is to control the dispensing of ice and water. When you press down or lift up the lever, it triggers an optical sensor. This sensor then sends a signal to the control board, which activates the appropriate component to dispense either ice or water. In the down position, the lever prompts the ice auger motor to transport ice cubes to the dispenser chute. In the up position, it causes the control board to open the solenoid water valve, allowing water to flow through the dispenser spout.

If your refrigerator is not dispensing ice or water correctly, it may indicate that the dispenser lever is failing or broken. A replacement may be required to restore the proper function of your appliance.

Before purchasing this part, please verify the model number of your Samsung refrigerator to ensure compatibility.
