    According to the manual the ambient temp needs to be above 10 or 16C. The freezer is cooled alongside the fridge ... if the ambient temp is too cold the fridge doesn't need to be cooled so much - at the same time the freezer isn't kept cold.

    Is it working any better now the weather is warming up?

    The ICT Engineer is obviously more knowledgeable on this subject - though it does sound like the fridge is fine with your current invertor. If it was a problem surely the fridge wouldn't work either?

    It isn't working any better now it's warmer. And most of the time, there is heating on my boat so it isn't cold. Otherwise I'd freeze!
