I have an 8 year old bio-fresh fridge (KIB2840 Index 23A/003) which runs continually at +9c. Sensors, PCB and fan have all been replaced and the system checked by a qualified gas engineer. The service engineer employed shrugged his shoulders, said there was nothing else he could do and walked away from the job after 3 attempts to rectify the problem.
The new PCB has been replaced with the original PCB and the fan has been replaced with the original fan, which is not working. An independent fan was placed in the fridge and ran for a couple of hours but this had no effect on the temperature. The temperature has been checked with a fridge thermometer, which reads the same as the fridge display.
Is a possible solution a faulty evaporator temperature probe? Should the service engineer have been able to detect this easily? If so what is the likely cost of replacement?
Any possible solutions would be welcome as I have already paid over £100 for sensors I did not need.
