Hi All

I have a Candy CFU130 /1K (built-in freezer).

Recently I've had a few temperature warning alarms, mostly (but not all) sort themselves out by putting the freezer on 'boost'. Yesterday it happened again.

I took the freezer out to clean the condenser coils and look for any issues. There's a bit of corrosion around the cold pipe from the compressor but nothing else. The PCB looks mint. On a couple of occasions the fan has been running but not the compressor. The compressor gets quite hot to the touch.

Any ideas what this could be? How do I test for an intermittent relay / compressor / PCB failure? My other half is getting annoyed with the buzzer going off at night (always seems to be at night).

Also, I managed to break both the rear feet getting it out. Any suggestions where I can get the feet at a sensible price? They're nearly £20 for two on the interweb!

Thanks
