The MK family in short
Three models carry the MK key, stepping unevenly through the numbering — a line extended over time rather than laid out at once. The faults that dominate across those entries are ice that stops arriving and a cabinet that stops holding temperature; each has its own page below.
What goes wrong on these models, and where each is covered
- Ice Maker Fault — What owners report: the bin is empty and the mould is full. Diagnosed on Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-mk-refrigerator-ice-production-2 — Title: Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault
- Not Cooling or Not Freezing — Recognise it by food at the front is warmer than food at the back. Go to Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Not Cooling or Not Freezing. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-mk-refrigerator-cooling-failure-2 — Title: Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Not Cooling or Not Freezing
- Water Leak — On these models: a trickle that never stops. The checks are on Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Water Leak. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-mk-refrigerator-water-leak-2 — Title: Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Water Leak
- Abnormal Noise or Vibration — Shows as the unit walks on its feet. Covered on Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Abnormal Noise or Vibration. — Slug: alpicool-alpicool-refrigerator-mk-refrigerator-abnormal-noise-2 — Title: Alpicool MK Refrigerator: Abnormal Noise or Vibration
Problem classes in frequency order on this family
- Ice Maker Fault — It is where this family starts. Usual first answer on MK: a water filter past its service point.
- Not Cooling or Not Freezing — Second on this family. On MK this normally turns out to be a defrost cycle that has stopped running.
- Water Leak — Third. The MK entries usually answer this with a blocked defrost drain.
- Abnormal Noise or Vibration — Fourth on this family. Usual first answer on MK: debris drawn onto the condenser or its fan.
- Body: No snapshot carries a sampled frequency here, so this is a technician's ordering and not a measured one; nothing is stated as a proportion. What moves it off the brand's own order is the model line on this page.

What is owner work on these models
On MK the first two or three checks on each page below are owner work and the rest is not. The sealed side is where the owner-side list ends on every one of these pages.
