FRIDGE HELP URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by mule75 »

i have a bushman 35/42l and the controler has stoped working. it looks as if two components on the circuit board have burned out. one capacitor and one black disky thing.

what i need to find out is how to get a diagram so i can find out what components to buy or where to get another thermostat to hook it up for now. can i use a thermostat from a normal fridge?????????

i currently have a toggle switch in place of the controller to get by today.

also if anyone knows where i can get parts?? i'm in landsbough qld and am not familiar with the area...................

If a toggle switch works, then a thermostat from an old wall AC or fridge you might get from a scrap yard will work too. You will just have to deal with 1/2 Metre or more of the bulb tube thing that goes to it.

Did you get the fridge sorted ? did you buy it from the place in Research that has an A board out on main rd just before Eltham college ?
