Usually this is just the battery has gone flat. It is quite easy to change, please refer to your user manual, simply remove the lid and the Philips head screws holding the top compressor cover in place, on the MT45F-S and MT35F this includes the hinge screws. Then gently turn over the end cover and you will see on the back of the temp display a round cap, to remove turn anti clock wise with a flat screw driver bit, and you will see the battery inside, remove and replace with a new battery. Replace cap, cover and all the screws and you are done. There have been two types of battery fitted, once again please refer to your user manual or the label on the inside of your lid for battery selection, LR44, or CR2032.

Hi Dustin
Depending on the age of the fridge, the fist models that had the displays took an LR44. Due to there fairly shot life (12 to 18 months out of 1 battery) they then went for the lithium CR 2032 which should last in excess of 3 years. My first battery with the CR 2032 lasted nearly 4 years.

So depending on the age of your fridge, they are the 2 type of batteries that they take and both sell for under $3.00.

Great, appreciate the responses, off to the battery shop I go,

Merry Christmas,

Cheers,

I don't wish to be picky here, but I think your fridge may be a 40l not a 39l. The 39l one of which I own does not have a temp display at all. Mine's a bit over ten years old and I think Engel changed to the 40l with the temp display a year or two after I bought mine.

Happy to be corrected if I'm wrong here.

Well there you go. Our display went blank the other day. Now I know why and can fix it my self. One of many problems solved by reading EO.
Thanks.
