Freezer (zanussi issues)

[Damo1176]

Help or advice required.

I have a Zanussi 56/52 RF fridge freezer.

For a good few months now our frizge has constantly said Too Warm and the freezer is incapable of lkeeping ice cream frozen in the top drawer. We have cleaned it etc and checked the doors seal properly but still too warm. Can someone advise possible probs and also advise who best to get in, I am in West Sussex. Its getting proper bad now and if it's not going to cost £100 plus we'll get someone in.

If we have to buy one we have these 3 on the list:

Hotpoint FF200
Siemens KG32U193GB
Miele 8862SD

Any thoughts on these welcome

I've done more digging and through taking the plastic cover off behind the freezer draws I have discovered the element, which the top rung has ice on it but the rest is distinctly uncold.

Anyone k now how much replacements are or what could be causing it?

System blockage, weak compressor or short of gas.
You could try calling a few companies but I don't think you'll see it fixed for £100.
