    The back panel is icing over too.

    Ordered a new fridge. I’ve googled now and found quite a lot of problems with this model.

    A shame as it was only 2 years old…but then maybe that’s why it was donated! The shop does check fridges but I guess they ran it for a couple of hours and did a PAT test.

    Hmm the back of the fridge (inside) is colder than the front.

    Do’h I think I found it….its the inline brown-shielded cable? That has a thermal device under the shielding and its got infinate resistance. New part £12 and I can replace it in a minnute 🙂

    Re: Indesit WIDL 126 Washer / Dryer

    Hi,

    Have a similar problem with my WIDL126, no heat on the drying cycle.

    Have a reading of 40 Ohms across the heating element, which seems higher than normal (?) but not suggesting its broken.

    Can’t locate any fuses or similar for the heating system however. With the top off, in the back right corner there’s a white, square plug which connects to the heating gubbins.

    Forward on the right there’s a round device that is not directly connected to the heater. What am I looking for?

    Machine is just under 3 years old, looks very clean inside though I have not removed the cover to the heating element yet.

    Thanks in advance for any help.
