Re: Zanussi ZX99/5SI – freezer not defrosting

*** UPDATE ***

Ok, its fixed!!

got zanussi to come a take a look see. the tech that looked at it was a bit confused as to what it was, but took a guess at it being the sensors, and plopped a new set in, despite thinking that they should not go in the first place. Its been fine since.

cheers,

bob.

Re: Zanussi ZX99/5SI – freezer not defrosting

Hi Del

Doh, yes i meant evaportaor! sorry very busy weekend, and the fridge breaking down hasnt helped.

1) The defrost stat open circuit
sure, but where is it? i cant see any stat, just two encapsulated NTCs.

2) The defrost elements open circuit
again, i cant see any obvious element, where should it be located?

3) The control pcb not initiating the defrost cycle.
Is this the board in the compressor compartment? or is there another?

Thanks for the tip with the power, i’ve been working on brown goods for a long time.
