Not freezing or cooling. Light on.
Hi. i have a glacier fridge freezer. when it was working ok, when i closed the freezer door it would make like a suction noise and i couldnt open the door for about 10 seconds. i came home today, opened the freezer then closed it - no suction noise and i could open the door straight after closing it. i thought maybe i had a power cut but it wasnt. i opened the fridge and the interior light was on. the food in the freezer was starting to defreeze and the food in the fridge wasn't cool. everything on the back of the fridge was cold. can any one help? thank you.

For a short time the pressure in the freezer is lower than the air pressure outside of the fridge. In essence, the difference in pressures is why you have problems opening the door, after it has been opened and closed.
The not cooling issue is related to some problem with the refrigeration system. Could be electrical or mechanical.

Sounds like you had left the door open.

You didnt say where this fridge freezer was located?... Could it be in a garage or outhouse??.. In which case ambient lockout was the likely cause
