Hi All,
Like a couple of other threads in this forum, I have problems with the above version of the SRS20.

It is located in a shed so sometimes ambient gets warm but hardly ever outside the ST (subtropical) parameters for this model so I don't see this as a problem.

The Freezer and Fridge displays flash continuously and both have ceased to cool - indicating the target temps but flashing. If I reset the main supply, the temps display as being close to ambient but, after the self test sequence, the compressor comes on and the freezer starts to cool OK. The Fridge section shows no sign of cooling whatsoever.
I have dismantled the fridge components but cannot find any particular issues.

When the mains power is restored, the fridge display shows 3 for several seconds during the self test sequence - I have read two different reasons for this figure - one is that it shows a "load error" and the other is that it is "software indicator".

Any help or a copy of the Service Manual would be appreciated.

Chris
