- 1. the fridge is about 5 years old
2. the freezer started the problems a few months ago and it keeps doing it once a month. if we switch the fridge off for a few hours it will work again for a few weeks.
3.the fridge is working
4. at the moment the fan is on, but suddenly it will stop and the food with be defrosting. only the fan on the top (fridge part) works all the time.
5. the fridge is constantly in use, but the freezer didn't work durning the nigth... from about 11 pm till 7 am that we have noticed the problem.
6. no power problems at all
thank you for the quick replhy
Not enough information. 9 major items to deal with here. 1. How old is the machine? 2. did problem occur over a short time frame or long? 3. Is the machine running or not? 4. Do you hear the fan in the freezer compartment, and the fan on the bottom rear running as well? 5. Was the machine out of service for a long time? 6. Any power outages in the last few days?

slight odour in fridge part of candy fridge/freezer. inside very tip of door is warm to touch. have scrubbed it twice but to no avail. fridge seems to keep foods cool sometimes, but not all the time....e.g. tub of butter seems very soft when taken from fridge sometimes....seals intact...temp now at max 5 in an attempt to keep food chilled.

Candy Fridge/freezer won't come on. I recently moved it to the garage to use as a spare and now the 'ON' light briefly flickers on but it doesn't come on and the fridge light is off. Any ideas as it was working fine previously?

You turn the knob to say medium, the fridge appears to be working normally, the light goes on, the motor makes a noise, but the fridge does not get cold and the food goes off.
