    I have a Diplomat APM 6855 fridge freezer
    yesterday both stopped working, lost £80 of fish and £70 of steaks along with the usual full fridge 👿 👿
    I stripped out the freezer compartment where the fan is, unblocked all ice and started it and so far the freezer says -35 (which aint right) but it is getting colder but the fridge has no cool air whatsoever….

    Help please, where have I gone wrong or what can I try next?

    Thanks

    The freezer will be set on fast freez a snowflake sign will be in the display you need to turn of the fast freeze button and the snow flake sign will turn off. You may find this has now reset as it should turn off after 24 hours.
    The fridge may be on vacation setting and you just need to press the fridge temperture button to reset the temperture if this does not work and the fridge does not start to get cold then the freezer still has ice blocking the air flow to the fridge.
    If the freezer iced up it is most likley the no frost evaporator sensor is faulty.

    Don’t forget the fan doesn’t cut in until the evaporator temperature is down to -12c which could take up to 10 minutes.
    Plus did you clear the channels through which the air travels to and from the fridge.
