Looking for some advice with this fridge.Have it set on 3.5 the fridge cycles very often.

Fridge goes on for approx 9 mins then off for approx 3 mins then back on.

This cycle carries on all the time fan at back of fridge is working.

Anybody got any ideas on this.

That's on a lot for this weather. Is it running on 12v or 240v? If it's on 12v what is your voltage drop at the fridge.

No expert but what is the temperature outside, are you North or South. The warmer the outside temp is the longer your fridge will be on. Our Evakool runs longer in the hot weather, I think that is normal from what I have read.

After checking a lot have taken out the plastic tray under freezer.Freezer can now be set lower and fridge cycles longer.
