Montpellier MON – MFF170W Fridge Freezer – Running constantly and ice build up

[jjLDN]

Hi everyone,

I have a Montpellier MON – MFF170W Fridge Freezer that is running constantly, creating ice build-up and ruining items in the fridge.
My guess was the thermostat.

I contacted Kenneth from this site, and he helpfully pointed me in the direction of this thermistor:
There’s not a thermostat as such, it uses a sensor in it, this one:

Unfortunately, there seems to be no info or diagrams on where it is located.
Today I defrosted the unit, and went looking for this thermistor.
I can’t seem to find it, I’ve taken photos hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

Please see below photos of the wiring behind thermostat knob, as well as the back of the freezer:

Any help much appreciated!
