A cracked or failed water filter case assembly doesn't just cause a slow drip — it can flood the interior of your refrigerator, contaminate filtered water, prevent the filter from seating and locking, or trigger a filter error that won't clear even with a new filter installed. The DA97-24459A is the genuine OEM Samsung filter case assembly: the complete housing unit that holds, seals, and locks the internal water filter in place. When the housing cracks or the locking mechanism fails, the filter itself is not the problem — this assembly is.
⚠️ Symptoms of a Failed Filter Case Assembly
- Water dripping or leaking from inside the refrigerator near the filter
- Filter won't click in or lock into position
- Filter error light won't reset after installing a new filter
- Visible crack or damage to the filter housing
- Water dispenser flow reduced or stopped entirely
- Filter falls out or feels loose after installation

💡 Pro Tip — Replace the Filter at the Same Time:
If the filter case has cracked or leaked, the existing water filter has likely been exposed to unfiltered water or physical stress. Replace the filter (DA29-00020B or DA29-00003G depending on your model) at the same time as the case assembly — it’s a $30–50 part and eliminates any doubt about water quality after the repair. Confirm your filter model number on the inside of the existing housing before ordering.
