Hi,
I have a Fridgemaster MTRF222 fridge freezer. The freezer appears to be working fine however the fridge is not getting cold. I've checked behind the unit and the compressor is very hot (can only touch for a couple of seconds at most) and as far as I can tell is running constantly.
I've tried removing the back panel to see if I can access anything else however all the panels are glued down with foam. Inside the fridge and freezer there are no panels that can be removed. Removing the fridge light/thermostat just reveals cables. The thermostat appears to be working correctly - it will switch off the unit at 0, and will turn it on with a demand for cooling.
The problem developed after it has been sat switched off for a month whilst away on holiday. The fridge has never managed to get cold despite being switched on for 3 days now.
Does anyone have any ideas what to check for?
