Autofridge

Adelaide Offroad on the Parade at Norwood.
They don't fix them themselves, but send them interstate to the manufacturer.
Grab yourself a big jar of vaseline and be prepared to bend over....you are going to be reamed bigtime.

Why not just phone the manufacturer direct and get the correct information from them...
just a simple thought - but I'm simple anyway

Have you tried someone like Gordon Brothers (for example)? They are refrigeration experts. Mainly commercial & industrial but you never know. We used them where I worked previously to repair our customers refrigeration dryers. They are very good to put it simply. Maybe they can't (read won't) do it but they might, or they may put you on to someone. Worth a go. Rob is one of the guys there. They at Regency Park. Always seemed reasonably priced for what they do as well. No affiliation, just a satisfied former customer.

Or try here. Conergy

I'm not in Adelaide but WA and I am an Autofridge owner who has had experience with repairing these fridges. My fridge developed a problem a few years back where the compressor woud run but no cooling would take place. This was due to leaving the fridge idle for a few years allowing the seals to deteriorate.

I searched all around Perth for someone with the expertise to repair the fridge but due to the eutectic design, no one would take the job on. In the end I rang the manufacturers Quirks ( energy today) in NSW and arranged to send the fridge back to them for repairs. It cost about $700 to fix but they upgraded the fridge to have a cooling fan for the motor which improves the efficiecy quite a bit. It has been absolutely fantastic since the repairs and I consider the repair job costly but worthwhile. At the end of the day I could have gone and bought a Waeco or some other cheapy but in hot places like WA, SA, NT, etc you can't beat the Autofridge IMHO.

Reading your post yesterday reminded me to check mine. I have mine running 24/7 for 13 years. So I did last night. Guess what? The compressor's working (was replaced 2yrs ago for $830) but the inside of the box is warm and the outside heat dispersment panels are cold.

This morning I phoned Lyons Airconditioning Services here in Perth who repair Autofridges, (me thinking the Eutectic side is stuffed and cost zillions to fix) the bloke said it could just need regassing but won't know until its checked out. I'm hoping thats all it is.
