N 3000 series thetford fridge not cooling

[Simon 1347]

While on gas or 240 the heating elements take place but no cooling within the fridge or freezer. The 20a fuse was blown on the main pcb. Now replaced but fridge still not cooling.

The freezer will cool first before the fridge, do you have any thermometers ?

Others will chime in soon with technical knowledge, I'm going to assume yo have no error lights on the display, you're parked out of direct hot sun, you've checked with a multimeter the condition of fuses in the circuits, checked for 240v etc

I've attached a troubleshooting guide for this range of hardware - which I've printed off and keep in the van.

Good luck.

There's a useful wiring diagram at the back of the troubleshooting guide and some help dealing with performance problems. Have you checked the thermistor is correctly fitted on the 5th fin inside the fridge ?

Someone with some knowledge will be along soon...

Can't be that important then !
I just hope when I have a fridge emergency that there will be somebody there to help me with the same enthusiasm and efficiency !!

I do wish people would let us know what happened after asking questions like this. It can be helpful for others with similar issues.

No matter. We're here to help each other, some more than others
