WAECO CDF-35, HAVE I GOT ANOTHER PROBLEM???

I cant help you but I would like to point out that electronic controls are not as robust as the manual variety. Manual thermostats are reletively cheap and simple to replace.

thats my opinion anyway.

I have the 50L waeco and it has the electronic controller. I have ran mine at -14 in high country as a freezer. Even thou it advertises a below -50 the freezer would not go that low anyway. You will probably find the freezer wont go any lower then around the -16/-18. But what they are advertising is if it was say +35 outside temp your freezer will get down to -15. Thats your 50 variance.Seems to be a bit of a variance between when it cuts out and back in again seems a bit extreme. I take it you have your own temp guage inside the fridge remembering where you have placed it can give you different temps. You will find a bigger variance when the fridge is empty to when it is full as the stuff inside will once cool or frozen depending on how you are using it will help keep the internal temp of fridge down so the temp variance wont be as extreme. Stick the temp guage in your house fridge and see what the variance is. You will be surprised. Regards Steve M

Your new fridges readings are much what I would expect and I don't think you have a problem Chris.

hi, we haven't tried it on the different settings just the extremes. i just phone waeco and he said he's not sure it should be ok but i can take it to a service centre to get checked if i want, that's a 2 hour plus drive for us (it's ok if you have fuel to burn). anyway what i'm trying to work out for the sake of argument say if it was a day were the ambient was 20 and it was set on freeze and it went down to -15 then doesn't that mean on a day were the ambient is 35 that it wont reach below 0??
thanks again from Chris.

My FF-35, like circa 2001 or something, will go to -18 no problem. On 45C days in the shade it will get down to -10C but the motor gets very hot.

Still going strong.

Sounds fine to me. When you have product in the fridge and using it under normal use it will be fine.
