Last Thursday we went away in the caravan and discovered on the first morning that the fridge (a 3-way Electrolux) had not cooled overnight. When we arrived at the site at 5pm I immediately connected the mains electricity and turned on the fridge to run off the mains as normal. (Incidentally, the indicator switch for running on the mains lights up as normal.)
At first I thought it might be the very warm weather we are experiencing, so I bought a couple of bags of ice to see if it would help get the internal temperature down and kick start the cooler. Unfortunately this did not work either.
Since returning, I learnt how to run the fridge off the gas. I left it running off the gas for an hour and it did cool the freezer compartment well. The central fridge seemed cool too, but I am not 100% sure if this was just the cold filtering down from the freezer compartment.
So, can anyone tell me what is wrong with the fridge??
