Since turning it on I have the following problem:

* On turning on the fridge gets very cold and ices up….
* when you switch the temperature controller to “OFF” then back on again (to minimum) you can hear the fridge stop and after a while will come back on…. it then goes to a reasonable temp..
* The fridge then works for a week (max) and freezes over again until you repeat above?

Is this the thermostat? or would it be something else?
If this is the thermostat is it easy to replace if I bought the part? is there any websites that show the procedure?

Any help appreciated as a novice on this!

thanks

Is it freezing the stuff in the fridge?
Empty the fridge and remove shelves,you will see a thin wire type looking device fastened to the back wall of your fridge.
Either an oblong clamp with two screws or a round one will hold it to the wall.
Make sure that is fixed firmly as it is the phial from the thermostat which sense the temperature.They can become dislodged.
