Bosch fridge freezer KGV33VL30S

Completely dead fridge. No interior light, nothing on the control panel.

To remove the panel slide a screwdriver in from each end and push the clip.

LNK304 had failed + R36 fusible resistor 22R

Replaced with LNK306. Didnt have anything close to 22R fusible, so used 315mA Fast + 22R = 26R combined. Measured 0.06V across both.

Didnt trace the circuit, but looks like a 5V output and a doubler to 9.5V

9V relay controls the compressor. 

There is a hall effect sensor by the LEDs which is used to control the interior light. If you don't install the unit, the light stays on for a bit, then goes off.

Cant be sure what each connectors does. Mains in (live via switch) has a black which switches live to the compressor.

Grey is probably for the seal heater. Looks like this is switched via a transistor.
