Sanyo wine cooler fridge quit working

Just stopped working all of a sudden. Nothing happens when you turn the dial off or on.
Any suggestions for a fix from the experts of the O-T would be greatly appreciated.

might just be the temperature switch (thermostat) stopped working
first thing is to check the compressor is coming on, if not then you jump the thermostat wires and if it runs replace the thermostat
if you jump the thermostat wires and compressor still is not running, confirm its getting power, if it is, you throw it away because its the compressor
youtube has a video on fixing everything LINK

Thanks for the replies- much appreciated.
My fridge is 19 years old and I can’t find any parts.
Am I out of luck due to the age or is there a way to find the parts?
Thanks in advance for any info.

Or am I out of luck because Sanyo is not a popular brand?
I called Ideal appliance parts in Metairie and they don’t carry Sanyo parts.

pretty much
the way they build them, stuff changes so fast, parts for things more than 10 yrs old dont always fit right
maybe you can directly source a part if it has a part number printed on it
but at 19 yrs old, i doubt you can find any parts that arent super generic stuff that hasnt changed in all that time.
you need to have someone with a little electrical experience use a test meter on it, and see if its the compressor, or the thermostat, or something else. it could just be a bad wire somewhere

Google model number, find part numbers for suspected bad parts, search by part number.
Might be compressor capacitor.

anything is fixable if you have the skill to do it or know a guy, thats why its good to make sure your list of friends includes a carpenter, mechanic, welder, and a guy that knows electrical stuff

Thanks for the advice from the O-T, I was able to get it working. The compressor is running and it is cooling.
I replaced the 2 modules that connect to the compressor and the thermostat switch. I found these universal parts online. I didn't know exactly what parts were bad so I replaced all 3. My cost was only $26.
