 Hi all, Can anyone tell us if our fridge can be brought back to 'life'.  We recently had it stood unused in the garage whilst re-fitting our camper - unfortunately it was not switched on at all for at least 12 months, now it won't work!  It makes some kind of sounds but seems to just get hot at the rear and not cold at all in the fridge, we've tried adjusting the temp control.  We only use it off the mains power.  I wonder if anyone could perhaps let us know if it's had it or if it's anything easily remedied!  Any/all replies welcome!

Okay try this,

Remove and lie it on it's back for a couple of hours. Put it back upright and turn it on.

Some time the liquids can settle, hey nothing to lose
