Re: Brandt Fridge Freezer fault

Thanks Dave.

I’m at work at the moment so I will have to check the model no later today. It is a frost free unit but I can’t see a drain hole anywhere in the frezer part however I will confirm the number later.

Thanks again.

Re: Brandt Fridge Freezer fault

Thanks for the responses.

In relation to the model of Fridge, all I have is a Brandt ”Apollo”. No other detail.

In terms of the ice restricting the air flow, the ice is gathered in the lowest part of the freezer, where there is no drain hole. The drain hole is contained in the upper part of the fridge and I’ve checked this and it is clear.

At the lower rear of the fridge, there is a black bowl object (excuse the ignorance but is this the compressor?). There is no noise coming from this at all, whereas when it was working it made a low(ish) hum. When I switch the fridge off at the electric, and then switch back on and nudge it slightly this starts to hum for 2/3 seconds and then switches off again? As it’s only 4 years old I’d be dissapointed if this has broken down – or is this a trait of these types of units?

Thanks again for your assistance.
