Chefmate mini fridge no more

try e-bay as you have the number on the unit
try any fridge service center using that unit as a sample
try the makers service agents for parts
try the manufacturer spares department

Well, mine is set to 1 and it freeze everything in the fridge! I'm going to try the opposite

replace fan motor.

Is the unit running? If so then,
by shutting the unit down for a long period may have exposed a pinhole leak of refrigerant at an external brazing point. or you may have caused an issue in cleaning it This is something that would require a licensed technician to resolve.

jeeze! none of these idots who replied are reading your question!!! I have the same issue not sure which is warmer and which is colder. in my full size fridge, 1 is warmer, and the higher numbers are colder. if you found the solution though- i would really appreciate it if you could let me know! my email is [email protected]... i have been searching for the user manual online and cant find it anywhere. cant even find a website for chefmate!!!

it could be the thermostat is not switching them on, try changing the settings on them, if it still dont work you may need new thermostats fitted,

The Chefmate 1.7 fridge uses a thermalelectric device (TED) to provide cold air. There are no moving parts there. The problem is usually in the power supply. That is the PCB on the left side behind the back cover. If the fans are running then your thermostat is bad or the TED is cracked. You can buy these ebay or other places on line. To change one you must carefully remove the large heat sink. The TED itself is only about two inches square. If you decide to replace this unit be sure to get a supply of heat sink glue. Otherwise you will end up with a hot (or cold) spot on the TED possitly causing another crack.

My chefmate is **** because the internal fan is garbage, its cheap, it doesn't work or give enough flow, try a higher flow unit. You can get the 12v at tigerdirect.com with some high flow (AND LIGHTS :) ) for a few bucks to save your 100 dollar investment. The removal of the orig fan is easy. The evap is a good setup, but the cooling setup for it seems to be sh*t. Cheap fans = cheap setup and this is why everyone hates these units cause it can't pump the goods.

For the record my fan died, so my evap and fan froze over completely and spoiled my food and burned out the fan completely and probably helped to short it. I can get it going if I flicker the fan with my finger but she is dead and can't catch naturally. You could replace the chefmate fan with most computer fans too... fyi if you got a junk tower laying around.

While your at it clean the fans on the back and take off the back panel which kicks out the hot air from the hot flow. It helps if your unit is older (a year plus+ in a dorm is like 4 in a clean house lol)
