Then the power use drops by half and it warms up, fan still going and compressor hums.

it seems to have a PSC motor .. Permanent Split Capacitor motor.

I changed the capacitor, as it tested lower than the stated value, this increased power consumption, but it still only cooled down once.

Leave the freezer switched off for many hours, then turn it on and it repeats the above process.
