    Came across a LEC frost free today TF5586S doing a report for Argos,12 months old.Compressor running no cooling.
    Put a valve on to check charge and it had a back pressure of .75 bar when running and making a really watery sound,evap temp of approx 4c with no sound of refrigerant in it or certainly no noticeable amount.
    Either compressor or I thought if the capilliary had failed inside the suction line almost by passing the evaporator so to speak which would account for the high back pressure.
    Any thoughts?
