G'day all, I am trying to find a new thermostat switch for a 29 lt Engel, does anybody know any one that stocks spares for Engels. Thanks in advance.

If it is just the dial that is not working you may be able to fix it.
The terminals in the thermostat dial thing on our one at work broke away from the circuit board and gave us an intermittent fault. It appeared to be made worse by the plastic circle on the insulating bag pushing against the dial when ever the lid was opened.
Fixed it by soldering a wire into the terminal and bridging it onto a intact piece of the circuit board.
If that's not your problem you could contact Engel direct as a salesman from Engel told me that they do sell spares. Have a spare arm or leg handy though.

Hoyks, thanks for that. It is the switch that is broken, then terminals have come away from the switch, will follow up with Engel direct.

If you're in
Brisbane, try Caravan Refrigeration
Services, 1/11 Walter Crescent, Lawnton (northside of
Brisbane). Phone (07) 3205 1236 and ask for Geoff Redfern. I was there yesterday with a warranty claim for my Engel and found them most helpful. Alternatively, do what I did and email Engel. They will tell you your closest approved repairer.
