[QUOTE="Mike678, post: 665870, member: 16778"] This fridge is a Chestcold Explorer .It has been stuffed up by a mud wasp . I took the burner out and cleaned it . Also cleaned the chimney , no dirt in it . I had blown mud wasp dirt out before with an air line . It had a flame but not strong enough . So I poured metho down the pipe until it dripped out the bottom . I then blew it out again with the air line . I have been away with this fridge for 3 weeks . On the first night it got down to 1 c. but after that it got worse . Not forming any ice . On 240 v. it was freezing well . My conclusion is , that the thermostat is blocked up with wasp material or the bellows or diaphram are no longer working properly . It has a good strong flame but maybe not enough . Expensive to get the thermostat replaced . [/QUOTE]
