well board is correct from my research

cant see any faults listed on tech site

its got to be something simple

if you have the old board try powering it up off the machine. its a single board so i cant see why it should not light up if its not faulty

you could have a new faulty board but proving that could be a problem. if it was me i would power the board and check for low voltage DC after the power chip

they were having trouble with the door lock but that seems to stop it starting

all you can do is find service mode and look for fault codes

Dave

ok first off
do you know for certain board is correct

if no

let me have serial no and the part no you fitted

ok found it model AG91850-4I never have got that from above

anyway hoped there maybe a workshop manual or something but no such luck

never seen one mayself as fridges not my line

with a bit of luck someone else may have an idea but it looks to be buried behind the evaporator

Most of the agents I work for won’t use anyone else. The property management team that usually gives me the instructions doesn’t want to go elsewhere but unfortunately, the company who have taken them over are a very large group and unlikely to accept a contractor that won’t comply with their agreement. I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

Turnover is less than £85000 so I’m not VAT-registered.

you will probably just have to give them time to get a few idiots in who make a mess of things. They will probably find more machines get scrapped as a result
they may get on the phone to you when they feel something is not right. if that happens offer to take a quick free look and report back. There is nothing like a report saying the job is dangerous or been scrapped for no reason to sway them back towards you but on your terms

post the complete model and PNC number

tried Arctic and got over 100 hits. added the number and got none

Dave

[electrofix]

that may not work as it look like it has a solid bottom

take the rear cover off and you will need extension sockets to get at rear bolts

Dave

[electrofix]

have you checked the motor impellor has not become detached from the motor shaft ?

Dave

[electrofix]

does sound like the motor armature has blown

Dave

[electrofix]

well this seems to fit

suspect fault 13

its not unusual to take 10{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} or so off the top. I have always refused to do it but if i had to I would increase the bill by the correct amount and add it as an agents commission at the end. That way when the landlord sees the bill they realise the agent is taking a cut

I would hold fire and see how it goes. if your the best man for the job the complaints from getting idiots in will soon bring them round

and your correct with the maths 100 + vat bill you would have to charge £134

As for vat are you turning over £85000 plus ?

Dave

[electrofix]

no would not sign that ever

do some work for agents but its under my rules

strive to be better than other local engineers. have see some really dangerous jobs. had one yesterday, some clown had fitted a rear bearing on a hotpoint dryer wrong way round, that meant the castle bit that revolves and holds the lock wire could not be fitted so was discarded. result the rear bearing dropped and cut through the shaft. the case was full of lint. it was a fire waiting to happen

from what your saying it sounds like the drum spider has failed

this will give you an idea but when some of them fail they only flex on spin and rub on the rubber and outer drum
