    I have heard bad things about this fridge freezer, but i have to look at a KGN34X00GB/02 with a suspected defrost fault all i have seen is it completly iced up, i have told customer to defrost and i will return. Can anyone please inform me of test or known faults with this so i can go back armed with a bit of information.
    Many Thanks
    Andy

    There is a mod involving a pcb replacement and fitting of a defrost heater and a deflector plate. (One of the BSH guys may be able to advise further).
    I think I have all these bits in stock if you require them – I don’t so they will be cheap! pm me if you need them.

    Can you post up the FD number Andy. Most of these have had the mods done already . There are a couple of other things to check .

    Is the evaporator frozen or are they getting ice in the base of the freezer compartment and on the RHS ? I have had a few where the white insulating part that the deforst heater sits in has split adjacent to the drain hole area , allowing deforst water to run into the freezer compartment rather than the drain hole. Always worth checking the defrost heater too.

    The mod consists of a new module and a metal ‘blanket’ that sits above the evaporator . Does this one have this fitted yet ?
