Hi, Have a Bosch kgu3201 fridge freezer which does not cool. Over a period of 3 days the fridge and freezer temp crept up to 25 deg.. I have left it switched off for 36 hours but it still the same. Any help regarding schematic or circuit diag. with some advice would be grateful. Thanks. Regards. IQUBAL QURESHI

if back wall of freezer has ice or thick build up you may have a defrost problem or if not the evaporator fan motor could be bad, not moving cold air from freezer to refrigerator.

Dear Sir,
It's a thermistor error, the internal evaporator one... but disconnect the fridge and freezer ones first in turn to see if the error changes. If it is the internal one, you should see an arrow impression on the paper covering the insulation which marks the spot to dig(at the back of the freezer.) Usually this error occur when water ingresses the push on tags, shorting out the thermistor.
Now the bonus... 9 times out of 10, you don't need to buy a spare, as there will probably be nothing wrong with the error giving thermistor. Remove and fit the fridge thermistor in the place of the internal one... clean and dry the internal one you removed and refit it inside the fridge.
You will need to repair the insulation with two pack brown foam insulation and foil tape. deffinately this solution solves your problem.If you have any problem regarding this issue post comment more information about the problem.we will glad to assist you
good luck.
good luck

In your case I will need to assume that your model is a typical refrigerator with a defrost control and these type have parts that are made up of the major parts for the auto defrost. Auto defrost has a most likely problem found in the timer or electronic defrost control. These are most times found inside the fresh food section and behind the temperature control panel in the photo below marked a E and in that photo it shows a defrost timer in lower arrow and a electronic defrost control in the upper arrow. The next most likely problem would be the defrost heater and defrost thermostat found in the rear of the freezer compartment. Sounds like the defrost system has failed. Most Brand models We are able to handle here in the USA but your model is made ih the UK and I have tried my best to Have your dealers provide me information about parts replacement. A refrigerator is a Refrigerator and that is a fact but your models is designed for your local voltage 220 volt at 50 cycles That is normal home voltage in most countries except th USA. Our voltage for an appliance is 120 volts at 60 cycles so all the electrical components ar different and made different for different countries. When I request parts or diagrams from the UK I am always rejected. Then given a local repair center to service the brand of appliance.

Without drawing a diagram, and assuming you have the controller, you need to do two things: Power the controller by finding a wire pair in the fridge that is always hot, and finding the wire that the resident thermostat uses to interrupt the operation of the compressor. This thermostat is usually located behind a panel in the top part of the refrigerator section and has a bulb that resides in the freezer. . Your controller should have an on and off range; that is, it should cut the fridge on at, say 61, and cut back off at, say, 60. You'll need some kind of range, thereby giving the compressor some "off time" of more than a couple of minutes. If you don't do this, you will reck the compressor, or it simply won't start. (Refrigeration systems need to equalize so that the compressor motor won't have to start when the pressure is really high. At equal pressure between evaporator and condensor, the motor can start easily.) . You have quite a project ahead of you. I suggest when you get into the nitty gritty of it, enlist your neighborhood MacGyver type. It shouldn't be that hard to pull off this project.
