Regassing Portable fridges

Is this possible when running on 240vlt.

Regards

The element could have moved from its correct location, and again dust buildup can be an issue. If the coils and fins outside are dusty they cannot get rid of the heat. If you know what you are doing, take off the back panel and carefully wash them well with water and something like Cousins Morning Fresh which leaves no residual. Do not plug it in for a couple of days so you can ensure there is no water around the 240v parts.
If the Finch is old the element wire does age and increases the resistence which then does not give out sufficient heat. The element will normally have the resistance stamped on the ceramic and it can be checked with an ohm meter to see if it is currently the same.

Hi Mark,
Yeah l,ve heard about the shaking thing as well might try that first before l go to the trouble of pulling the cover off and giving it a good clean.

Thanks

My brother-in-law has one which was barely cool. A local refridge mech turned it upside down overnight and now it works a treat.
Cheers
