Engel fridge no worky

[BOGAN V8]

Hey all

I use my Engel fridge as a freezer at home and it started to get a bit of a ice build up so i defrosted it and the oustside was a bit dirty so gave it a wipe down and hosed out the inside of the it

Now i left it draining on a angle over night and went to plug it in this morning and turned it on and it not worky no green light the 240v lead has power as i checked it with something else plugged into the same outlet

Is the something simple i should look for.........

Any help you guys have will be great

Thanks Dave

there is a relay in the control box inside that switches between 240 and 12v

along with a 12v power supply

check if it runs on 12v if so it might be the 240v power supply or just a fuse.

I just got mine, want a scan of the manual er A2 page?

just has defrost, clean, then dry no hose out or anything.

it does say don't use too much water as the lining will become water logged and it will take longer to cooler down until it properly dried out.

it doesn't say anything about a 240v fuse but there could be 1 inside it.

the outside one near the plugs is 10A

it has a polarity guard for the switching of 240v to 12v
if the polarity isn't right the green light will not come on and the fridge won't work.

following this, the DC fuses shouldbe checked plus fuses in DC cord.

but if the green light doesn't show up this could show a power supply fault and should be sent to engel to be checked.

maybe the polartiy guard is broken.

there's buggar all instructions for it, I'm quite supprised at how little there is, but may have helped?

If there is a polarity gaurd on the fridge, maybe you should check the polarity of the lead you are using or try another lead
