I wonder if anyone can offer any advice/assistance with this problem

The Electrolux RM4271 Fridge on my caravan has stopped working on mains electricity, it does however, still work fine on 12v & gas. Reading other forums seems to indicate the fault will likely be that the heating element has gone so thought I'd replace and see.

I'm now having problems find a replacement element for the RM4271, There seems to one available for the RM4270 but not the RM4271 does anyone know if they are the same and if so are they simply enough to replace.

Hi, Firstly did you try the fuses?? the person who can help you is gary who runs arcsystems, he should answer your request.

Sorry forgot to add,have you checked the socket the fridge is plugged into either under the oven or bunk?

Micky

Thank you for that Micky,  yes it is plugged in and I've checked the fuses.

I've a feeling it's the element but not sure how to (a) test it or (b) replace it

Thanks everyone, last night checked the switch was receiving power, which it was. Then checked the element which showed it to have blown.
