Fridge thermostat adjustment

May 24, 2011 7 Replies

Servis fridge. Always very cold and compressor on. Replaced thermostat, same results!



There are two adjustments screws, a small brass one apparently moving contacts and a larger screw working against a spring. Having fiddled with these the fridge is better, but how do I adjust this properly?



Thanks, Paul DS



I am adjusting a thermostat in a lada fridge there are 3 screws

1 contact spacing I think is hysteresis and temp 2 coil spring i think is course temp 3 leaf spring is fine temp I am not a refrigeration engineer but manage to repair most things.

Could you have a go at your comma key, it doesn't seem to be working! :)

Not only that but his full stop key is similarly broken (and there seems to be an intermittent problem with his shift key too). :-)

But, as Brian observed, he's probably got those problems well sorted out by now (some five and a bit years later). Never mind eh? Better late than never I suppose. :-)

Just checking - is a Lada fridge a cheap copy of an old Fiat fridge and made in Russia?

I think he is asking about the heater in his Soviet era car. (BICBW)
