AEG fridge freezer problem, help !!

cbrpaul

We have a AEG fridge freezer , the freezer works perfectly , however the fridge has a strange problem

The fridge is a AEG SANTO 3510KG with separate compressors for each compartment.

The problem is,,,,

The top of the fridge appears warmer than the bottom , if we turn up the stat , then vegetables at the bottom freeze up :eek:

The element at the back of the fridge frosts up fine all over , infact there is more element at the top than the bottom , yet items in the bottom freeze

I have checked the door seal , it appears fine , you can hear a woosh of air upon opening, i have removed hte internal bulb incase that was coming on , I have tried all different settings on the stat.but nothing !!

Any help or advice be most greatfull , before I have to go buy a new one , at at these times it will be difficult

Just incase anyone reads this and wonders !!!

I replaced the thermostat with one from Ebay for £3.50 and and it worked a treat , I now have a fully functional fridge freezer again and saved £100,s !!!
