While shifting the refrigerator i tilted it backwards a bit. This caused some liquid to spill. I ignored it thinking its water. But after the cooling has come down drastically. I inspected the back of the refrigerator and i fount a tub to the right of the compressor which has some liquid.
Is the liquid in the tub water or some kind of coolant? Is the low cooling a result of this spilling of the liquid? How do I get it fixed?
Just water, tray is for defrost only nothing else happens with tray. make sure it is in right area to catch water (should see tube sticking out about inch or two) also look inside under crisper trays for drain hole to see if stopped up from moveing fridge, use straw or something small to push in to check ( it's just a drain) also make sure unit is clean under and on back, no dust bunnies ( use vacuum to clean)
If it's the oil then definitely the cooling will decrease.Just pour some of the liquid in a half of a mug of water n when u see oil floating then U'll need to refill the Refrigerator's gas[Gas Charging] again.When there's a leakage in the pipes near the compressor then the gas makes the oil come out.Touch the pipes connected to the Compressor n see if there's an oil leakage.If there is... u'll be needing a Fridge Mechanic.
How long have u kept the fridge running n how big is the fridge [in ltrs.],anyways?
For that longer period even a 500 ltrs. refrigerator would be in its full swing.Now u can check if your fridge is still working the way it used to.I think u got my point.

After switching the refrigerator off for sometime, is it natural for it to take time to heat up(start cooling with good efficiency). What cud have gone wrong because of which the cooling is low after the shifting of the Refrigerator. I have moved the refrigerator to my new apartment and carried it in a truck.
i had kept it running for almost 6-8hrs. Its 285ltr
