Hi all,

I got called out to a customers Westinghouse fridge still under warranty, Westinghouse have been out to it twice now but the tech that they send claims that he is an airconditioning mechanic not a refrigeration mechanic!? He adjusted the doors for them told them to turn the fridge off for a few days, and hey presto it worked for a week then slowly deteriorated! (He didn't even take the covers off inside the freezer!)

Classic defrost problem I know- problem is this fridge has all the electronic stuff on it - I generally stay away from these fridges but the customer insisted that she didn't want westinghouse back again.

Anyway cut a long story short(ish) I found the coil to be completely iced up all termination t/stats and fuses are OK, Heater is also OK - by method of deduction I have decided it must be the electronic defrost control - I would just like to test it before I go ordering a new one...has anybody got the testing sequence for this fridge? (Westinghouse RJ523V-R)

Cheers
