Electrolux RM 122 switch position

Post by Retro Restore »

Hi the fridge in my 1982 Viking conversion has no dial on the switch. The switch is mounted on top of the fridge in the centre, does anybody have an image showing what the switch positions are, as the panel above the fridge is also missing, does anyone know where I can get a replacement panel and switch dial from.

Cheers

That's the mains/12V selector. In my 1983 Viking it's a four position switch - 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock are both 'off' positions, 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock are 12V and 240V, but I can't remember which is which. Trouble is, there's no indicator light to show that it's on, and it takes a good long time to cool down, so it's difficult to know whether it's powered. The markings in the dial will be fixed with respect to the flat on the spindle though, so I'll check that out and report back this evening.

This is the switch position when the flat of the spindle is across the top:

Thank you CJH, I found out the 12 volt position by accident as it was left on overnight, and flattened the battery, been away in the bus this weekend, the fridge is working on 12 volt, mains, and gas, just need to find a dial now.

Cheers
