I came across this forum by internet search. I was looking to find out why the fridge part of my Ocean fridge/freezer was staying mostly between 10-12C. The discussion I found was back in 2006 and from what I learned there it does appear that my PCB is faulty. I want to send it for test/ repair but need advice on how to get the PCB out of the housing. The problem is the thermostat rheostat. The big selector knob comes off ok, but there is a plastic spindle part underneath, on the rheostat spindle, which is preventing the PCB lifting out. Does it just pull off? I am afraid excessive force will break it. Advice welcome. Model is Ocean APM 6823. PCB is BB601. Thanks

Sorry! Wrong forum. Moderator, please move previous post to Refrigeration Help……
Re: PCB removal Ocean Fridge/Freezer
Do you mean this module?
If so I think it comes out with that shaft on it from memory.

Re: PCB removal Ocean Fridge/Freezer
Yes, that’s the module. The spindle will not pull through the plastic housing and let the PCB come free, as there is a plastic ‘top hat’ sitting on the spindle shaft, underneath the big temp selector dial. Will that just pull off the shaft with sufficient force, or will it break?
