    1. Check the drain.
    2. Check the re circ fans are blowing
    3. Door seals.
    4. Thermostat. Are there 2? Fridge and freezer?

    Any helps would be great.

    This model has a fridge sensor/thermistor,embedded in the insulation not the standard thermostat.Resistance needs checking at pcb/control board terminals to establish if it is faulty,it means cutting away ome of the insulation at the rear to access it.Available from partmaster/espares/ukwhitegoods,instructions come with it but it is a pain to do.Cheapo made by Candy,nuff said!
