I have had 2 fan motors go in 2 years, is this a common fault.. Also does anyone know how to remove the thermostat housing in order to test the thermostat.. Thank you in advance
Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
Fan motors are a common fault on this model but are not expensive fans.
There is no thermostat as it is electronic controlled.

there must be a thermostat , as the

That is just a sensor and a flap inside and also has a heater to prevent this part iceing up and rare to get a fault with this part.
The fan blows the air into the fridge compartment and the flap opens and closes to control the fridge temperature.
I have only had to replace one of them due to the customer breaking the heater trying to remove this unit.
Not much to fail on this unit.
The video on the website shows how to replace a standard thermostat and your model does not have one, no serviceable part in the spare part you are looking at you just have to replace the complete part.

Checked heater installed new fan, works ok then starts freezing bottom of fridge again and no water comes out dispenser?
Could it be one of the sensors??Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer

Possibly the part you looked at in the first place the flap sticking as this controls the air flow to the fridge.
This part just clips on and you have to pull it from the back down and towards you to remove it.
If you get the new part before trying to remove the old one you will see how it clips on.
The part has a new sensor and control for the fridge temperature it also has a heater to stop the flap icing up.
Normally if the fridge is freezing at the bottom it is a fan fault but if the flap is not working it could cause the same problem.

Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
Yes we are thinking along same lines,, thank you for your help, also can you just clarify the spin direction of the evaporator fan
Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
If you have replaced the fan with a BEKO fan then you will not have a problem with the direction of the fan.
Nearly all makes including BEKO spin in a clockwise direction.
The exception is Zanussi Electrolux which spin anti clockwise.
The air should enter the fridge section at the top and return to the freezer section at the bottom.

Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
ok new part received and installed ,, still same prob ,, could it be the mother board thingy PCB>> one at top of fridge or control panel one???
Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
You need to check the freezer evaporator is freezing evenly all over as it may be a refrigerant problem.
The control PCB normally gives no problems and if the main PCB if it fails the fridge and freezer does not work at all.
If you fitted a new unit at the top of the fridge you have replaced the sensor as well as it comes complete with the sensor.

Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
can you cast your eye over this and see if you think it has even icing.. The back looks less iced , I think.. Your opinion please.
Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
Iced up more, but defrost cut in and all clear… Could there still be a fault witht he evaporator?
Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
beko ap930 gone to scrap . lol back to basic model and may get more longevity out of it
Re: Beko ap930 fridge freezer
Sorry to hear you had to scrap it after all your effort.
I was away and the area I stayed at had no internet connection not even mobile internet so was unable to advise.
It looks as if it may not have been freezing down enough from the photos so it was most likely a compressor or refrigerant fault.
