    thanks for the help.....i know it not working because the freezer it not keeping my food frozen when it is on the recommended setting,
    i am waiting for a thermometer to be delivered so wont know the actual temp till that arrives, i have a low temperature switch which i tried but it seemed to make it even warmer rather than cooler. i have put the heater on in the kitchen will leave it a couple of hours and see if there is any change.

    That might take a while as it is the inside of the fridge that needs to be heated up, albeit indirectly.
    I'm not sure what the low temperature switch might be for - when you say it makes it worse do you mean it make the freezer warmer and everything thaws out more?

    the low temp switch is for when the fridge is in a cold place, according to the manual, but when i tried that, it seemed to make it warmer.
