Thanks nomadPaul

You are describing it just right – the water flows at a good rate up to the float switch level, then pumps out (and repeats). Light on after 40s ish

I have ordered a spare part, and I promise to turn off the water and power 🙂

Re: Fixing a KGV3120GB/01

If the two thermistors were for the fridge chamber and the freezer, then you’d be right.

Earlier posts suggested that they’re not – that the freezer is calculated to run below -18, and no worries if a lot below, and that the sensor are fridge temperature and rear cooling panel temp (in fridge). If the rear panel is too cool, then it must have ice on it, so switch off until the ice has melted. (This makes the machine ‘frost free’)

My fix lies to the machine, effectively saying there’s no ice. Over the last 9 months, I have had to defrost the rear panel twice – if you’re really careful setting the thermostat you can keep a decent temp and get any ice to melt (as long as the kids don’t let too much fresh damp air in constantly going in the fridge 🙂

I believe dark blue is the fridge device – I recall it changed by a few kohms as I worked. This is about what you’d expect for a few C change on an NTC. (I’ve looked at an NTC datasheet – expect about 25{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} change between 0C and 5C)
