    The first thing i did was look at the temerature settings, they do get knocked by things sometimes but i dont' think it's that this time.

    Whatever it is, it's effecting both fridge & freezer

    Maybe i'll get on the phone and call a few service guys...

    Sounds like the compressor has gone. I called a company called fridge works who came out within the hour and the bill was not to bad, cheaper than a new one.

    I've given it a good clean out and there's definately a fan noise still and i can feel air coming out of the vents in the freezer but it's not cold air.

    I called a guy and he was going to come out today but because i don't have any cash on me (and the boys were asleep so i can't go get any) he didn't want to come. Booked it for tomorrow morning instead. We have an old fridge in the garage so i've moved what i can out to that.

    Thanks girls, these things happen when you least expect it

    Well the guy came out this morning and the whole thing has died and we need a new fridge!! We are about to renovate our kitchen but we weren't planning on getting a new fridge and this is going to throw the budget quiet a ways off. Not much we can do about it though....

    Thanks for you help

    Bugger! You could get a second hand, or factory second one. Might help with the budget
