Default Fridge tripping RCD

Well I wonder, does it have any capacitors for suppression of switches or
other things? If it was something major I'd expect it to just ping it every
time it was running.
Other than that fridges have way too much electronic clutter these days,
and this part obviously needs a power supply somewhere.
Could of course be something as simple as some melt water getting where it
should not. Dead spider? Don't laugh, it does happen apparently!

Hi All

Just got home and the circuit the fridge is on has tripped the RCD. On
further analysis it looks like it is the fridge (Fischer and Paykel double
fridge freezer) itself. Any ideas how to figure out what is wrong with it?

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Lee.
