Hot fridge

Post by Tex Ritter »

Tried to cool a 3 way fridge down using 240 v but all it does is get hot. I can hear a bubbling/plopping sound from the rear, Is this one for the turning upside down for 24 hrs job, what do you reckon?
Thanks

Hiya metalmick8y, the fridge in question is in a caravan we have, we have only tried the 240v side of it. But if it wont work on 240v then it's not much good.

When you say its getting hot. Is that inside the unit or the grill out side. Because out side will get hot. Try the upside bit, over night, then turn it right way up and plug in

I mean the ice box stays ambiant with no hint of coldness, the plopping sound comes on within minutes of plugging in/switching on.
