Ice cream maker HGF360 does not cut

Hello good afternoon I made the move of the refrigerator to my new home, and as I lowered it I had to move it a few meters in a horizontal position I left it unplugged one day to stabilize, since I have read it on several sides. The issue is that since the move does not cut and the compressor is continuously working. I bought a new thermostat of the same model for ML and installed it in the same way as the original. The issue is that it remains uncut and begins to freeze at the bottom. Obviously now I have it off to avoid making the compressor work so much. Could it be that the thermostat they sent me failed wine, or do I have another problem? I leave a picture of how it freezes with the new thermostat. Thank you in advance for your responses, Greetings

Hello Pablo, for the image nothing seems to have problems, my suggestion is that you do not disconnect the refrigerator anymore and hope that it reaches its maximum temperature, so that the thermostat starts, to censor the real temperature. Do not expect this to happen right away, it may take up to 24 hours for a thermostat to begin to perform its functions well and the refrigerator for up to 72 hours to recover, from the loss of cold suffered during the time the site moved. However, if you want to know if the thermostat census, either the temperature, and if you connect it correctly, you can take it to the minimum of its sensitivity, also reducing the scale in your working range, turning the control knob, to the left , contrary to the hands of the clock. Example if you have it regulated in # 4, lower it to # 1. When you feel that it stops, if even at that point the compressor continues to work, then force that stop a little, thus forcing the compressor to stop, also turning and forcing the left turn, by moving more in that direction, to the control knob, until yes, I heard that the compressor stopped, then re-manipulate the knob but this time, turning it to the right and place the graduation in the range number # 1. If you do not listen, when you reach that point, the compressor tries to start immediately, and that the entire refrigerator is left dead and only the interior lamp works. This would indicate that the control has good sensitivity and that everything is well connected, so you only have to wait for the working temperatures of the refrigerator to stabilize, after 72 hours. If, on the contrary, when the stop is forced by manipulating the control knob, to the left, and said compressor does not stop, in that case it would be incorrectly connected, the thermostat. But if you force the stop and it does well, but try to start the compressor right away, in that case the new temperature control or thermostat would also be damaged and should change it. Your refrigerator during normal operation, you have to freeze almost the entire rear wall where the connected thermostat carries the bulb and can reach up to half a centimeter the thickness of ice or frost, which is formed there, after that limit, the cold temperature begins to be lost , because the heat exchange with the evaporator plate of that conservation zone would already be lost. Luck. S @ lu2 friovega63.

Hello, thank you very much for your time and your explanatory response.
I had forgotten to clarify that the thermostat always has it at a minimum (printed as MIN). I did what he told me: I plugged the refrigerator and forced the stop by turning the knob counterclockwise (0) the compressor stopped. After that I return it to MIN. The compressor continues off, and a hum (very slight) is heard, the interior light loses intensity, then a click is heard and the hum stops, after 5 min of that another click is heard and the compressor is still off.

Continuous:...
Minutes later a third click is heard, and the compressor starts again. That would be a normal operation?
In case I had been surprised about the frost and that the thermostat did not cut, because as I do not know the subject, I saw ice and my reasoning was "I would have to cut".

Hi Pablo, the mistake was mine, as I did not clarify that this test you must do after the refrigerator works at least 6 or 12 hours in which it manages to accumulate a certain amount of frost on the evaporator plate, inside back. Nor did he know that he had the refrigerator disconnected from the power supply. Obviously, what happened was that when you were not cold and you forced the compressor to stop and then raise the thermostat to # 1, the latter not censoring still cold, he gave the compressor the order to start immediately

and obviously the internal refrigerant pressures did not allow the compressor to turn on again until that pressure was able to go down, the click I hear, was the thermal protection by opening the circuit to protect the compressor, from the overload produced, until it was ready to restart. At least it has been shown that the thermostat has been well connected, because it cuts when the stop is forced.

Hi, it was finally a matter of time. Currently the compressor already cuts and the frost has disappeared.
Thank you very much, regards!

Excellent news Pablo, I imagine you can sleep peacefully, the secret was not to despair, but my way, things are like that, when something goes wrong. Thank you for the communication. Luck. S @ lu2 friovega63.

Hello If before moving the refrigerator, it cut well, you should not have changed the thermostat, replace the one you had and leave it in a medium term, it takes time to cut, it may last 24 hours or a little more, until it stabilizes, it takes for the time you stood, greetings

Hi Pablo, the thermostat that is wearing the glasses is a danfoss Kdf. 26, it is the original, fix the thermostat bulb that is tight, not loose that the screw is not falsified. Greetings.

it may be that they sold you a thermostat that is not the original, so it does not cut you .. maybe they sold you one that goes against the aluminum plate not against the plastic
