Beko AP930X Fridge Freezer no lights, no power- trips power supply when FF connected

[tamba001]

Yesterday iit was working fine but sometime during the night last night, our nearly 4 yr old Beko AP930X FF tripped the power supply, when we woke up assumed there was a powercut.

On resetting tripswitch it tripped immediately and we quickly determined the Fridge Freezer was the problem. When plugged in the power trips instantly, but when not plugged in power doesnt trip at all.

The FF appears dead, showing no power, no lights on display panel, no errors, no internal lights ..nothing ....

Any advice welcomed ...

Having read a number of articles about hoovering/cleaning the Condenser Coils wanted to do that.. BUT need someone to confirm where to find them on our model ? and how to get to them ...

Ought to add we live in UK so I wont get replies from others in US re "not supposed to be running appliances on a ground fault circuit" etc

Many Thanks in advance for your help

Cleaning condenser not going to fix it... though cleaning it before it broke might have prevented it breaking.
