    Hi Galway

    the air return vent for the fridge will be blocked with ice, its located behind the freezer evaporator,
    check the defrost heater is working by turning the defrost timer manualy to the defrost position before you start to defrost the evaporator, if it is ok and the freezer door has not been accidently left open change the defrodt timer as a precation.

    good luck.

    hi Galway

    looking at the TDS disk its located at the rear of the appliance next to the compressor.

    do a manual defrost and make sure you get that vent cleared.

    I told him to do that before I call out and it made no difference so looks like I have another problem.
    I’ll find out tomorrow, cheers.
