    Obviously an electrical short.could be motor or defrost element.
    You will need an engineer with a meter (meggar) to isolate/identify the component responsible,

    Fit origionals only is my advice,from Fosters spares in Kings Lynn/Peterborough.01553780300
    Dovetail fitting so rip out the old and fit new with a little help from some washing up liquid and strong thumbs!

    Re: Fridge Not Working

    “The Fridge” sounds like a frost free type.
    Fans dont start until evaporator temp is aroun -12ish so no cold air blown around freezer or fridge until that is acheived,could be 15 minutes depending on room etc.
    Model numbers etc are helpful.

    Re: What’s the most stupid things customers say?

    Cafe/take away owner “Hi we have moved a drinks fridge and its not working now”
    I said it wont without the front on, saw this, owner “we had to take the light panel off to get it in surely it’s only the light we took off it should still work”
    Plugged in and switched on! 😯
    no it’s the thermostat wiring plus you have broken the thermostat phial/tube
    he said”can’t you solder it?”
    I just walked out the door,brainless doesn’t come close.
    The same guy cleaned his range cooker a few years ago with a pressure washer and then rang me and said it’s gone bang.
    You couldn’t make it up.

    Re: Hoover fridge freezer not freezing

    Would have told you to avoid Hoover 10 years ago but then yours at 10 years has been good 😕
    You mostly get what you pay for,Bosch,Brandt and electrolux brands.
    Probably best to use the search engine on here and see what comes up

    Re: Hoover fridge freezer not freezing

    If there is a noise when the compressor shuts down either banging or shuderring it usually spells the end of the motor.its probably now although partially working not able to freeze efficiently.
    10 years isn’t bad for a Hoover (candy) which is one of the cheaper built machins.
    Shopping time!

    Re: Zanussi Condenser Dryer

    Scrapped,though I’d rescue the compressor and associated parts.
    It’s a VHP compressor,very high back pressure probably 1.5 to 4.5 bar depending on temps,hopefully will be re cycled into a greenhouse heater for winter!

    Re: Commercial freezer condenser

    See why you ask now being in North Lincs (or is it South Humberside).
    I’m in Woodhall Spa,a lot worse places and great for cycling around the wolds.
    Semi retired now but still busy enough for me.

    Re: STOP THOSE CASH JOBS!

    VAT especially is a tax collected almost entirely at source with virtually no cost,as far as I know to the govenment,we do all the calculating.
    Has anyone ever calculated for say every £1000.00 vat payment, what it costs the business in terms of staff wages.heating and other equipment to submiy our return with the payment.
    I’ve got some business customers (fast food places) who only deal in cash,ie no cheque book,how the hell are they paying a fair share to the revenue,if anything at all!

    Re: Hyde Park jobsworth ruined my City Break

    Talented pair,popular.
    McCartney,great writer during Beatle era and after but was always my least favourite Beatle,seemed insincere,probably not fair to him but hey ho.
    Springsteen (Wiggins is now the BOSS)OK but not for me.
    I wouldndn’t knock those who like him,music is like wine and women,all about personal taste.
    Bradley,winner tour de france 2012 (watched it the first week)fantastic. 😀
