Hi all,

I have a 20 year old 39 litre Engel (still going strong!!) that has recently started to play up when I switch it from 12-240 volt or vice versa. The other day, I switched it on (in 12 volt mode) and it didnt start. I left it on for a few days to see if it would kick in (as it has done a few times before) and nothing happened. As I was going away and needed space in the Hilux, I took it out, put in the shed and connected it to 240 volt. Initially nothing- in fact it didnt start up for a few days. But then!!! Presto, fridge started working. Is there a switching mechanism in Engels that could be on the way out in mine? Is it worth fixing in a 20 year old unit? Anybody had a similar issue? Can anyone suggest a solution?

Thanks,

Tass
