I just bought one just like this , except it doesn’t work, he said had a short in it… not sure.. I was looking for any information on this fridge, mostly on how to fix it and make it work again. It’s a beautiful little fridge. Any information would be very appreciated and helpful. Looks like it’s missing the drip tray, ice trays, and the cord need to be replaced, looks like they spliced, it together with another cord. Looks like it use to be white n they painted it a yellow colour. I have a wonderbar servel fridge, that works great and has one of the ice trays. Still looking for a second one. thanks in advance for any help. Hi, welcome! Glad you are looking to get your Frigidaire going! These are very simple in reality. The hardest part of rewiring it is gaining access to the wiring behind the cabinet breaker-strip trim. If I were you, I would start with 100% new wiring. No point in splicing the cord or wiring since it's all old. There is one safety-critical part in the system. That is the compressor motor start-relay and overload circuit breaker device. It's called the "YT-Relay" on these models. If that is removed and bypassed or wiring is crossed up at that point, it can damage the compressor. Otherwise, it's not likely that the compressor is bad. Do you have any pictures to share? Sincerely, David
