hi there, i have the model with independent compressors for fridge/freezer.
fridge works fine and freezer was also until someone left the door open and it frosted over inside.
I has been thoroughly defrosted (1 week off), cleaned out and all drain pipes checked etc, but now it now struggles to reach -15. With coolmatic button pressed, it can get to -20 (display readout) but it is pumping continuously to do so, i switched it off incase the motor would overheat.
whats the likely prognosis -it is worth calling someone to repair (refigeant leak possibly/ faulty sensor) or something uneconomical to fix.
regards
