Cleaning out my frezzer and took a bit of ice from the top shelf of the frezzer and it took a piece of the plastic with and air and liquid started coming out then stopped. Is this the liquid that keeps it cold and is the frezzer nackered.
Will the fridge bit be ok or am i looking for a new fridge/frezzer.

yeh think thats the freeon stuff they use in the tubes it sounds KNACKERED

Defrosting a fridge freezer should be done in only two ways:

1) allow it to melt naturally with the power off.
2) as above, but with a bowl of warm water to help it along (NOT BOILING)

simple fact is, you`ve gubbed it, time to buy a new one.

Jimbo : oÞ

suggest you buy a self defrosting one comet have a clearance auction site. bought myself a bosch f/f 11cu feet for £85 plus del £25

aye your freezer will be knackered with a day or too now refridgerant will escape and moisture will get into the insulation within the cabinet if can be repaired but would cost you loads m8 to sort it buy a new one
