Fridge 240 issue

· Posted: 30.04.2016 · #1

Hi all,

Currently have an Electrolux fridge

It will Cool on 12 v when driving and on gas when parked, but when plugged into the 240v it won't Cool,

Any tips on what I should check first?

From some research, I think the 12v and 240 use same element so if works on 12 must not be shot element at back,

Thanks ms in advance

I think there maybe separate elements for the 12v and the 240 volt!

Really?

I thought it was the same element for 240v and 12 volt and a separate one for Gas?

I could be wrong though,

Mine quit on 240v at the weekend. Getting pi**ed off with niggle problems.
Sorted for the second time on 12v. Working ok on gas.
When I got home, I checked that the fridge switch in the cupboard hadn't had something pushed against it by accident.
No, it was on.
For some unknown reason, I switched it off, then back on again. Red light did not come on.
pressed & depressed switch a number of times. Itermittent operational.
So another little job to check out.
I could have spend weeks trying to find that.
