Title: Companion Duel Zone 70l Fridge issue
Post by: dwillia on Dec 28, 2019, 12:23:27 AM

Any fridgies and/or smart people here?!:

Companion dual zone 70L fridge freezer, Freezer works fine, down to -18 in just a few mins, the fridge side...nothing. I've swapped over the control knob from the working side and that didn't help. The fridge side thermostat engages the relay and starts the fan and compressor but no cooling is happening in that zone.

any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

I would personally take it back to an authorised dealer to get it looked at, could be anything wrong with it, they should be able to fault it and hopefully its still under warranty or a cheap repair.
I used to service the ARB range of fridge/freezers and often enough it was something simple.

I still have the ARB service manuals if anyone requires them.

i'd love them mate,

All the decent fridges I've seen are all very similar in design and components, using danfoss/cecop compressors and controllers and off the shelf thermostats and displays.
