Fridge suddenly clicking and not cooling
Anonymous user 16/03/2024 - 2.36 PM
Suddenly fridge is clicking intermittently and not cooling. Seems like compressor isnt starting - relay clicks at intervals as it tries to start compressor. You cant hear fan so seems relay is unsuccessful. Is this a job for electrician, or us, or is it un-fixable? I have pictures of the mechanism, and model is: Currys Essentials CUL55W12. Thanks!

If it is trying to engage and immediately cutting out you either have dodgy thermostat or a blocked pipeline, maybe a dodgy contactor.
To fix it might end up costing as much as a new one with some repairmen.
Get a well established appliance engineer with access to reasonably priced parts.
