Many thanks for the video, I bought a 15ohm 1 pin relay but unfortunately it is about 1.5 too big for the area it should go. Tried removing the bottom and placing as someone else did but I think the connection is not stable. Really hard to find this part in exactly the correct size
Hello, many thanks for the video, really helpful... Unfortunately I can't seem to find any link to get the right,, thermal overload protector” my wine cooler is FWC303SS. The part I found the pin is on the other site. Many thanks in advance for your help 🙏
so i purchased the 1 pin 15 amp but from amazon but it is too long by about 3 mm as the earth connection gets in the way, can anyone provide an actual link to the relay that is the right one please?
I did manage to get it off, and eventually++ back on again, by fiddling, poking, levering, twisting and turning. I have no idea how I did it, it took hours. So not much help to you I'm afraid. To cap it all, the thermistor whatnot was intact.... When I found an electrician who would talk to me he said these machines were c**p and best thing was to bin it!
I opened up my CDA FWC303BL and yes the relay needed replacing part number QP2-15L - could i find one? Nope, like rocking horse shit. The other thing to note is that the plastic cover slides off toward the rear of the appliance.
Thank you so much for the video and instructions how to fix. £7 part on Amazon and followed the instructions to fix. Wine cooler up and working again. Very helpful and much appreciated.
Just sent off for my 15ohm thermistor for £6 off amazon, and yes the ceramic disc inside that black item was in pieces. Apparently caused by power surges, so perhaps the trick might be to fit a power surge protector inline? Cheers

@@colmmclaughlin9570 I need a thermostat sensor, I can get oe from CDA, but can anyone tell me where it needs fitting or how I can get instructions
@@AndieP11667 I bought parts off Amazon marketplace, though they didn't fix the problem alas, so need to buy a new fridge.
Thanks for posting these. Proved very useful and managed to repair my wine fridge!
Does anyone have a clickable link for the components?

sourcingmap 15 Ohm 1 Pin Refrigerator Start Relay for Compressor Black I got the above from Amazon do I search on this
It worked on mine I still have this in my Amazon purchase history. Good luck
Thanks so much. We are having the same problems with the same model. Dont suppose you have still got the Amazon part numbers. Thanks
Thanks, but I would have liked to see more about removing the cover, I found this to be impossibly difficult given its position.
Yes, me too
Me too, did you manage to get it off?
@@supersonic16 Yes, but I really had to break off the tab and use force to get the cover off - it goes back on, but its not that simple to take off.

I managed to get it off, very tricky but keep the tab depressed with a small screw driver and you will get some motion on it
Hi Can you please tell me if you found the exact number replacemrnt or used an equivalent type and from where

@@seanroutledge260 was this for the 303 model?
Not sure, it doesn't have the water tray.
If the disc inside the part isn't cracked should it still work OK?
