Our freezer has packed in and I've just thrown out the contents.
It's a 50cm wide 'under the counter' Bush freezer kept in the cellar.
Previously, it was very little used - peas, ice, occasional ice cream
and for chilling wine. A few weeks ago I filled it with junk stuff for
lockdown, and it was certainly working two weeks ago. It's only three
years old.
Plugtop fuse is fine as is power socket but there's no current drawn.
Normally, for the sake of £130 I'd just get another, but Argos aren't
delivering. Maybe somewhere else is?
What's the most likely problem? It's a very simple device, no
electronics, no lights or manual switches, just a thermostat control.
I was almost looking forward to the frozen junk food.
Could be the stat, wiring or compressor. You need a multimeter really, but could trace the problem using a torch to test for conductivity.
