Should be Neff K8524x6GB/01 I cannot see how to edit the post…

Just an update should somebody search for this model of fridge in the future.
I decided to buy another fridge freezer instead of exploring a fix due to the unknown variables. The new one cycles more frequently and attains a tighter range for both zones.
Thanks for the replies.

Another issue has just arisen. I’ve been monitoring both this Liebherr and our integrated Neff fridge freezer with Bluetooth thermometers and on the occasions I look, everything seems to be in order until today.
The Liebherr freezer has been cycling between – 22 to – 26 with the odd rise to – 17 now and again, not related to putting food in it or leaving the door open.
Looking at the logs, it would appear to have failed to attain – 22 around 7 this morning and proceed to rise to – 16 and has been cycling around this temperature since. The fridge has warmed to 10 degrees.
The compresor feels hot, there doesn’t seem to be any water in the pot above it and one pipe is cold on the compressor the black grill at the back doesn’t feel particularly warm.
I have turned the unit off for 10 minutes, transferred in some frozen freezer blocks and put it back on superfrost in hope that it will magically be fixed but suspect that it won’t be…
I think it’s about 12 years old and suspect that a visit may beyond the value of the fridge.. Any advice welcome.

Just an update.. the visiting engineer found water in the base. He explained he dried it and found a blocked pipe which he cleaned and ran a cycle without issue.
We have used it once without issue, if it happens again in the future, I will just replace it.
Thanks for the input.

Thanks Dave,
I will have to get someone in to look at this, I wonder if it could prove to be uneconomical due to the age?

[Gerard]

I take it there’s no position for just the fridge?

[Gerard]

Hi Tony, thanks for the reply. As mentioned I will keep an eye on the data over the next few weeks and evaluate the recovery phases re times.

[Gerard]

Thanks kwatt, I ask because following monitoring via the app, it appears that the recorded data is following the noted duty cycles. I have just loaded some more room temp tins and will keep an eye on it to see how it raises the temperature and how it recovers.

Can’t find the edit button..
If set to 5 degrees, it’s a 2 hour on/off cycle, it doesn’t appear to break this cycle

[Gerard]

Further question please…
I have recently purchased a Bluetooth thermometer to keep an eye on this as there is a bit of a swing with the temperature.
It appears that if the fridge is set to 3 degrees, the fridge cycles on for 4 hours, off for 4 hours.
If set to 5 degrees, it’s a 2 hour on/off cycle, it does appear to break this cycle.
I haven’t attempted to put excess foods in to raise the temperature but my wife has on occasion filled the bottom shelf with tins of room temperature beer tins and the temperature obviously rose but I didn’t notice whether the fridge start to cool it down.
Is this duty cycle normal or indicative of some sort of fault?
I note our Neff cycles frequently and appears to retain a constant temperature.
The Liebherr, mostly stores drinks in the fridge and when set at 5, had an average of 6, with the sensor somewhat close to the back (2 small tins away) approx 8 inches above the low shelf.
My concerns are that if the fridge is topped up at the end of a 4 hour cycle, it won’t start to cool down for another 4 hours.
Hope this makes sense…
Thanks.

Hi,
thanks, going to monitor this with a temp logger next to the fridge sensor and review what’s going on. Will also give Liebherr a call after contacting the most local authorised repair agent. Not sure if there’s a list of common fault/repairs for this model.

[Gerard]

Update, decided to put it back to 3 degrees and the temperature has now dropped to 3.7 degrees. Whilst this is good I would like to know what the problem could be please? I noticed the initial problem Thursday.

Re: SEBO X4 red light check brush issue

Not sure how the brush of the SEBO isn’t directly in contact with the floor?

Re: SEBO X4 red light check brush issue

Thanks, will have a look, not keen on a cylinder.

Re: SEBO X4 red light check brush issue

Hi Don,
Thanks for the advice; I gave them a call and went through a few checks over the phone but was told that the brush I fitted was the wrong type. Whilst I was certain this fault occurred with the old brush, I refitted it and it’s ok, no light and much easier to move.
On a side note … As all our floors are either tiled or wood, do you know of any upright vacuums without the roller brush please?
