Well, it gets cool, freezer seems fine.
I've read a lot about these getting blocked up with ice etc, and I haven't tried defosting it for 48 hours, but did try defrosting it for about 6 hours today using several gallons of hot water in washing up bowls inside instead of a hair dryer to melt it a little swifter.
I thought it might have been this because I stupidly left the door ajar for a day or so and it got very frosty inside.
I probably haven't given it long enough to see whether this has worked yet, but the query really is regarding the fans/damper etc.
All that I've seen seems to indicate that there is a fan to move the air around and a damper of some description to allow cold air to enter the fridge.
I can't see any removable panels in the fridge or freezer, and the only hole I can see that could allow cold air into the fridge is the condensation drain hole.
Am I missing something - is there a fan/damper no this kind of machine. If so where else should I be looking. The only removable bits appear to be the light housing and the thermostat housing.
Thanks for reading.
