can anyone help we recently bought our avondale grampian and the fridge worked on all three ways now it will only wok on battery and gas not electric i think the snow got to it anyone got any ideas why it wont work?
Check there is power going into fridge. If there is it is possible that the 240v element has failed. These can be replaced for about £40parts + labour, if you can't diy.
Make sure fridge is level tho. If you are testing it on a sloping driveway it won't get cold.
thanks for the advice but where will we find the fuse fot the fridge, and how do we know if there is power going into the fridge? and how do we get to the element
To replace the element you will have to disconnect & remove the fridge. If you are capable of doing that you are capable of replacing element which is in the back. If the rest of your 240v electrics are working there should be power going to fridge. To check actual connections you would have to remove fridge, anyway.
The point about it being level is important our drives only slopes a little but it won't work if there is too much tilt - this is normal.
Otherwise it does sound as if the 240v element has gone, unless you are a confident DIY'er you are better getting a mobile technician out to it. Besides anything else there are gas and electric connections to contend with.
The plug you can see on the back in the centre is the feed to the fridge and on ours very often gets knocked out, cutting off the supply to the fridge.
