Re: MFI APM 6221 only freezes when fast freeze button depres

My 3 year old MFI integrated freezer APP6403 just had the same problem. I got an independant engineer to change the thermostat at a cost of £110 cash. Problem solved.

I read somewhere on this Forum that my particular model suffered from a ‘dodgy batch syndrome’ where the insulation prematurely fails leading to water seeping into the thermostat compartment.
A friend of mine who knows a bit about electronics checked the old circuit board that I had replaced and said the solder joints did appear to have suffered from damp. I think he said they had a white chalky effect on them.

I just hope this does not mean the new circuit board is destined to fail in time.

Anybody else suffered this problem?
