Zanussi ZKS57/38R Thermostat Replacement

Bought a replacement Thermostat and for the life of me can’t work out how to get the cover off the the inside of the fridge cubicle to get access to change the Thermostat. Any clues out there… ❓ 💡 :rolls:

Ease off the lamp cover and you will find one screw just behind the bulb. With that removed carefully lift the rear of the stat housing and slide towards the rear to unclip the front.

Power off before working.!!

New problem…..

Changed the Thermostat and since then the Compressor is still running all the time.
Fridge part now seems ok but Freezer is on overdrive (typically soft scoop icecream is like a brick!!!!) 🙁

Any clues out there……. ❓ 💡

If you wired the stat up incorrectly you could have just shorted the stat out so the compressor is always on.
Check the wiring again as Im sure you took the precaution of writting the 3 pin numbers and colours down before removing them!
