I moved house 6 months ago and transported my fridge on its back.
It was like that for maybe 10-15 mins.
it has sat idle for 6 months until Wednesday when I plugged it in.
The display came on along with the motor and all the rest, but it didn't cool down.
an engineer came out, changed the drier and re-gassed it and it worked.
switched it off, lifted it into the house,plugged it in........same again.
Engineer came back , new drier and gas, switched on, it worked until 5 hours later.........same again.
He said there is nothing he can do about it as he thinks the oil from the compressor has gotten into the pipe which goes to the drier and that's what is blocking it.
It cost £800 4 years ago and I really don't want to bin it.
Any suggestions?
( apart from don't transport it on its back again. )
