HI, the freezer is tripping out the fuse box and there is a burnt and melted area on the plug that goes on to the 'black bottle' in the bottom of the freezer. is it possible to get a replacement plug?
regards
Steve
Re: HI, the freezer is tripping out the fuse box and...
Just replace the plug as you would any appliance that comes without one.a loose connection/socket is a prime fault for heat buildup and cause the connection to melt.

You did not post the make and model number but there is a defrost cycle that the unit uses to defrost the freezer. When it goes into that cycle the ice on the coils melts and is supposed to run down a tube to a tray in the bottom area behind the kick panel. If that tube is plugged or the tray is full, the water ends up in the bottom of the freezer. Unless you have an ice maker in the unit that is not working right.
Hi, You have a "short" or a direct path to ground somewhere in the washer... Possibly a wire rubbed through and is touching the frame...of a bad motor... To find the problem you will need to pull apart the washer... look for a burnt area... or use an OHM meter to track down the short...
This could be a fuse issue. Look under the dash and find the fuse box and see if any are burnt. there is a wire in the center of fuse that should be one peice. if it looks melted or black then replace it with same amp fuse. There may be a diagram on the fuse box cover that tells you which one to change but sometimes more then one fuse goes out so just as well to check them all. I can use all the thumbs up i can get, keep me informed, Raz
Step1: Check if there is water on the bottom pan. Remove the panel down on the backside of the machine and look. If it's water there, wipe it well up with a towel or so.
Step2: If ur dishwasher doesn't starts then first check the usual suspects. Make sure the circuit breaker isn’t tripped and that the wires at dishwasher’s power junction box aren’t burnt. If all that checks out, then go right to the control panel area.
Step3: Asko dishwashers have problems with the wiring in the control panel area burning or melting– very messy. While your problem may not be as dramatic as that, the problem may still be visible. You may find burnt or discolored wire terminals or the spades on the start button switch may be burnt– anything burnt or discolored has to be replaced. You can buy any replacement parts you need right here.
I would be checking the service panel. I'm assuming the dryer has been working in that outlet. If the breaker is over 50 amps that is why it didn't trip. But the breaker may be bad itself. Make sure it is wired properly. Red wire should go on one side of the breaker and the black on the other. The white should go over to the neutral bar. Then make sure the outlet you plug into is wired the same way. (MAKE CERTAIN THAT BREAKER IS OFF) The top two prongs should have a red on one side and a black on the other, with the white at the bottom. If these are correctly wired, the problem is either in the breaker or inside the dryer. Depending upon the model you have, a 50 amp double breaker isn't prohibitively priced. If you buy the breaker, wire it the same, turn it on, plug in the dryer and it happens again, the dryer is at fault. Coils burn out inside them, lugs burn through, but I'd feel more comfortable at that point calling a service man, tell him what you've done with wiring, breaker, and outlets. It may be time for a new dryer.
most commercial freezers have a drain to the back of the compressor area where the condensate goes into a pan and is boiled off into the air by a loop of hot gas tubing in the pan or an electric heater in the pan. when it defrosts the ice on the coil melts and the water flows out . if the tubing gets plugged the water flows out of the pan and down into the bottom of the box where it refreezes on start of the next refrigeration cycle. clean and clear drain with a shop vac or air hose where water can flow out of pan under the evaporator coil when it defrosts. if you have a domestic residential freezer , most of these have no defrost and neeed to be shut down and manually defrosted every few years. if you leave the door ajar or it doesn't seal well ice builds up and can accumulate in the bottom as frost etc. it would be mosyt unusual for a residential box to have a defrost clock, drain and all, but possible and same rules apply. find the drain and clear with shop vac .

good place to start is the starting device for the compressor.slip the cover off the compressor electrics on lhs of compressor usually and you may find the relay burnt out.tyhis is the mostly area but if elsewhere, look at the defrost element and check wiring loom
