Diplomat 60/40 fridge freezer not cooling

[b21playa]

Hi all

I have a diplomat built in fridge freezer purchased from MFI about 4years agoh

Realised yesterday the stuff in the fridge had gone off and realised it was as the fridge was warm. At this point freezer looked ok.

I could not hear the compressor but after turning thermostat up, and messing about with it, it seems to have kicked in. Since it has stopped again

Can anyone provide any help?

Thanks in advance

The model number should be inside the fridge compartment.

Normaly on a label to the left or right you should see it if you take out the salad box’s

The most likely fault will be the electronic module.

It is Unlikly to be any other fault on this model.

If you fit a new module make sure you have It set to maximum before turning the power back on otherwise you may think it is not working.

If you turn the module on after the power it has a delay of about 10 minutes before it will start

From the white goods shop on this site not sure of the price.

If not then post again and I will give you another supplier.

What goes wrong with the electronics module?

Re: Diplomat 60/40 fridge freezer not cooling

could it be the thermistor on the pcb?

Re: Diplomat 60/40 fridge freezer not cooling

Managed to get a digital thermometer to check the temp

The freezer was -16.5deg and the fridge was +11deg.

Model: apm6012

Freezer is cold, but fridge sometime gets down to 4deg, other times 12-16deg

Where is the hole/fan when the cold from freezer is circulated to fridge
