Re: Beko CDA648FS/1 Frost Free Fridge Freezer-Fridge is Froz

Just a quick note to say I followed these instructions last night (the only difference is I *did* solder the wires just for piece of mind) – the operation was simple to do, with the only issue being that I cannot use expanding foam without getting it everywhere! 😆

Ordered the part from Ebay as per several other posts, arrived after one day.

Like one of the other posters, I had to make some small trims to the shrink coating on the new part to make the width of the whole thing the same as the original so it fitted in the metal sleve, but it was just shape changing and did not pierce the protective nature of the sleeve.

I used Silver “gaffer” tape to replace the membrane that got pierced to expose the original sensor, then filled with foam and replaced the original square of outer lining.

I’ve popped photos of the entire thing in the link below for anyone who really needs to see what’s what, but in all seriousness, just follow the detailed instructions from the post by “moderator” and all WILL be good! 🙂

Thanks to all the people who posted here – you’ve saved me from buying a new fridge!

Last thing – as per “moderator” ‘s post, you DO NOT need to open the cover to the PCB/control board in the top left corner – I was only in there checking other things whilst working.
