Fridge/auto electric repairs

Fridge keeps blowing fuses and I need someone who will look at car and fridge as one system. Fridge repairer says fridge is OK. Auto electrician says wiring is OK but neither can check others work. Tired of paying out money for no solution. Anyone remotely near Kirribilli would do.

Try Con at Electromotive 198 Princes Highway arncliffe, phone number eludes me but in the book. This man is an electrical wizard on cars and comes highly recommended!! If the fridge is the problem that may be another issue but bring it out for him to look at and advise!

Medium size Engel. Can come back with model number. Fuse was 15 amp although one expert(?) suggested 25amp which had a similar life. ie. dont blow instantaneously but after about 1/2 hour of use.

A medium size Engel should run happily on a 10 Amp fuse, my 29L does. Only if I also put my 15L Engel on as well do I replace both 10Amp fuses with a pair of 15Amp fuses. When no longer immediately required to run both fridges, back the pair of 10Amps go. Cheers, Dion.
