Re replacement thermostat

I replaced the thermostat in my fridge freezer as the freezer was going down to -60 degrees centigrade and the fridge to about -10. Having replaced the thermostat, I have the same problem. It seems like the stat isn't switching out the compressor, and it is running continuously. Any ideas? Thanks

    If the thermostat capillary is fed into a tube into the fridge lining it would normally reach the back of the fridge wall and contact the evaporator. Sometimes the tube can come away and then the capillary does not contact the evaporator and does not sense the correct temperature, If this has happened it may not be repairable.
