Re: SCHREIBER INTEGRATED APM6325 SX LARDER FRIDGE

The parts turned up this morning (very impressive service)..

I have replaced the stat and the hinge, relatively straight forward procedures.

However, the fridge still doesn’t seem to be cooling.. It has been on since around 2pm this afternoon and it doesnt feel chilled in there yet..

I have checked the door seal and that looks to be making a good seal..

UPDATE 10:45 am :-

Its now Tuesday morning, the fridge has been on overnight and its still not getting cool….

Being a technical support engineer, I am used to making checks to help pin-point problems, but as my expertise is with access control systems and not fridges, I am relying on your advice.. Is there anything else I can check, or anything I can do to help pin-point what the problem is ?

Relevant information:-
Previous to the fridge developing this problem, I noticed it was building ice on the back panel, near the top of the fridge, but this is supposed to be a “frost-free” fridge. At the time I thought it was a little strange, I pryed the ice from the back panel and removed it from the fridge.. It was shortly after this that I noticed the fridge wasnt cooling properly..!

I have pulled the fridge out to see if I can spot anything obvious.. The compressor is running constantly and it is red hot !!!!!

I have decided to switch it off for now as the fridge isnt cooling and its probably costing a small fortune in electricity keeping it running..

Oh one other thing…. When I removed the old stat, I noticed a tiny drop of water coming out of the tube where the probe wire goes?? is this normal? Condensation perhaps? or a sign of something else?

It’s a nightmare trying to keep things fresh in these warm temperatures, so I would like to get it working again as quicly as possible, any help or advice would be greatly appreciated…

Kind regards
Steve

Cheers mate, parts ordered…

I dont suppose you would know where I could download a service manual for the APM6325 would you ?

Re: SCHREIBER INTEGRATED APM6325 SX LARDER FRIDGE

Re: SCHREIBER INTEGRATED APM6325 SX LARDER FRIDGE

One other thing before I start ordering parts..

I presume the stat is what makes the compressor come on and off..
The fridge sounds as if its running all the time?

Are there any tests I can do to verify what the fault is? Bypass the stat etc

Kind regards
Steve

Re: SCHREIBER INTEGRATED APM6325 SX LARDER FRIDGE

Thanks for your swift reply, I will get a new stat and hinge on order..

Do you know where the stat is located on this model & is it accessible from inside or will I have to pull the fridge out?

Kind regards
Steve

PS. Sorry about the duplicated thread I wasnt sure if I posted it under the right topic (so many similar topics)..
