(I can't find the previous thread that sent me off on my quest. Appologies, moderators)
My fridge freezers hasn't been well. The freezer was too cold (couldn't eat icecream from it) and the fridge part was too warm - food going off. So having read a bit about fridges here, I went off and bought a thermostat in the shop in Nth Frederick St. Having been baffled by the assisstants talk of earth wire being in different place, I spoke to a friend who told me the thermostat is hidden inside the wall of the fridge behind the control knob. Am feeling I've bitten off more than I can chew, as I'd assumed it was somewhere accessible round the back of the fridge.
Has anyone done this? Is it simple? Can a total novice like me do it? Should I just give up now and get an electrician? I prostrate myself humbly and await the great advice of my fellow, but much more knowlegeable AAMers.
