Big_all may have hit the nail on the head with this one, but the fault could still be elsewhere on the system! You would need to test the system following the disconnection of some of the major electrical functions of the system in turn. (i.e. compressor, light, thermostat, electronic controls). Can you remember any external influence may may have attributed to this fault - eg any spillages inside or outside the fridge (even on the plug), has the fridge been moved recently.......?

Remember though that the 'motor' is integrated inside the compressor (sealed) and is very very very unlikely to be damp! Check the connections that enter the compressor for 'dampness'!!

Again, thanks for the advice. The old freezer was crammed anyway so rather consider possible causes for damp we got a new and larger model.

Looking through the instruction book, I find one bit that intrigues me:

"Never use continuous operation unless unnecessarily required"

It sort of reads to me as "Only use continuous operation when you don't need to"
