    Hi, I own the above fridge. Recently switched it on after a year, powered no problem, but doesn’t go cold. It appears to start ok, then after a short period there is a click like a relay click. Then silence. I checked the thermostat resistance and it’s working fine (I purchased and fitted a new one just in case). Not sure where I should be looking next, any ideas?

    Sounds like the compressor is seized which, if it’s not been used in a year or more isn’t all that surprising really.

    Cheers guys, that totally figures.
    Would you know can I un-seize it,or are they line replacement units?

    Check the starter unit and its connections.
