Re: Hotpoint Iced Diamond Fridge freezer RF64P cooling probl

No not a thermostat problem, more likely a coolant or compressor problem? Is the compressor motor running?

It doesnt appear to be. This may have been what started coincedently when I tapped the thermostat. Is the compressor situated at the rear at the bottom? Would a gentle tap release the motor?

I have this fridge freezer out in the garage. Would the recent cold spell affect the coolant / compressor?
