Fridge/Oven

Stocked the fridge today, to go on a long run. Thought we could have a Pork Pie and chocolate bar lunch when we got there. But the fridge decided to turn its self into an oven, pies where warm and chocolate melted Big Cry any ideas, I suppose I could try and claim under warranty, it was retro fitted but is a genuine LR fridge Whistle

Sounds like the peltier plate cooler is fitted backwards?

It's a heat exchange principle, has it ever work correctly or is it a recent addition?

Hi Beane
I fitted the fridge, having got it from a breakers on eBay, it worked fine after fitting. Tried it again this morning and it's working OK again. I did notice that the switch light was green this morning but I'm pretty sure that it was blue yesterday when it went wrong Shocked

Does anyone know the part description for a PELTIER PLATE for a 2012 cubby fridge?. I notice there seems to be quite a few on e.bay at a reasonable price. I thought I may have a go at repairing the fridge my self

Sounds like the peltier is working just fine, just with the polarity reversed.

Trouble is Robbie some times it gets cold another it will get warm. As these peltier plates seem quite cheap, I thougt I would change it. I just need to know the right spec for the plate.

Been out to the car and take the fridge out, the light is on but the fan is not turning, would that point to it being NOT the Peltier plate?. Is there somewhere I could get a repair done?
