    Lots of good information on various Beko models on the forum, with instructions for locating and replacing thermistors.
    So this is a question about my specific model CFD6914APS 7257846385

    Is it possible on this model or is it a no go ?

    Symptoms are build up of ice on the back panel of the fridge with one spot on the panel being particularly bad.

    I have swapped control boards from my other BEKO unit with the same P/N control board, so looks like thermistor issue.

    Thanks

    this is getting to be quite an old unit now, last manufactured aug 16

    no info where the thermistor is

    are you sure thats the fault ?

    What is it doing ?

    First thing I noticed was ice bridging the fridge evaporator panel to one of the glass shelves. I thought some food had been pushd too far back so cleared the ice and made sure there was nothing bridging the gap. Kept an eye on it and found that the panel always had ice beads on it rather than droplets.
    Turned it down to number 1 and stays pretty much the same. One spot in particular (by the shelf) has the most ice, but I don’t think that is of particular relevance.
    As stated, I do have another similar model, so was able to check control units and they are identical, so swapped them over. Problem remains.
    Freezer appears good.
    Lots on here and on the Whitegoods guides about thermistors so assuming that is the problem and reason for this post.
    Understood re the age of the appliance but a simple and cheap fix would be good rather then cart it off to the tip.

    poor or ageing refrigeration system can also cause ice build up on the rear wall

    what temp have you got in the fridge ?

    assume comressor never stops

    if yes its struggling to get down to temp

    the temp is sensed in the fridge. compressor will run till temp gets low enough in the fridge. if it never gets there ice builds up because it does not defrost

    time for a new one i think

    If the compressor never stops, it’s likely struggling to reach temperature, causing ice buildup and no defrost cycle. That usually means the sealed system or compressor is failing, replacement is the best option. Go for it. [USER=”7937″]andytw[/USER]
