Zanussi Fridge Freezer not working after moving

[Becca]

Hi! Please help. Just moved our Zanussi fridge freezer (slim line, fridge on top, ZEBF 255) about 7 metres out of our kitchen and into our dining room and it is no longer working. We plugged it straight in and left it on normal setting (3) but both fridge and freezer are now warm. The light still comes on in the fridge. The bit at the bottom at the back (compressor?) is still making a faint humming/buzzing noise but the big metal grid thing (filament?) is cold. Any ideas what the problem is and how to fix it? The fridge freeze is only about 18 months old so all help gratefully received. Thank you x

Did you layed him down in horizontal position during moving?

How long did you keep the unit off when you moved it?Is the motor compressor warm/hot/cold?Try turning the thermostat to off position,switch the fridge off,leave it for a hour or two,then turn the stat back to normal and check the compressor......

Disconnect from mains power for about one hour.
Then replug again. It should work.
the problem, almost always is the starting relay gueting too hot. Because when you moved the fridge, you didn't wait the time necessary for the high pressure circuit to equalize.

hi

put in the bin, its not going to work.....

next time , if you want to move, keep it straight.........and then move......once you move ( dont lie down ) keep 24 hrs off for oil to come back.( cuz oil circulate in your system and you put your plug immediate to turn on, cuz for that you lose your compressor........
