Truck Refrigeration Repair in Sydney and Arndell Park
A refrigeration fault costs money by the hour. Stock can spoil, a delivery window can close, and a vehicle can sit idle while the problem is chased. Protran Solutions is an independent repairer that looks after mixed fleets, so you do not need a separate provider for each brand.
The workshop sits in Arndell Park’s industrial precinct near the M4 and M7 junction, within reach of most of Western Sydney’s logistics estates.
Repairs the Team Handles
Faults show up in different ways, and each one has a different fix. Common repair jobs include:
- Units that will not start or will not stay running.
- Weak cooling or a box that cannot reach its set temperature.
- Ice building up on the coil because of a defrost fault.
- Alarm codes, sensor faults, and display errors.
- Belt, coupling, and compressor failures.
- Engine faults and electrical problems, including wiring and charging.
For damaged panels, the company also offers fibreglass body repairs.
Onsite Repairs and Workshop Repairs
A service vehicle can attend your depot carrying the equipment and common parts needed, so a simple fix does not mean a vehicle off the road for a day. When a job needs a bay, a hoist, or specialist tools, the vehicle goes to the Arndell Park workshop.
The workshop brings several trades together. A fault that crosses from the refrigeration circuit into the engine, the wiring, or a hydraulic lifter can be handled under one roof, without the vehicle being passed between providers.
Parts and Service Exchange
Repairs go faster when parts are on the shelf. Protran Solutions keeps a wide range of spare parts for all major brands, including genuine Thermo King and Carrier parts, plus reconditioned compressors and engines that can be swapped in. Exchange units can shorten the time a vehicle is off the road compared with waiting for a rebuild. Browse the parts department for the full range.
What to Expect When a Unit Fails
The process is straightforward, and it keeps you informed.
- Call the office, or the after-hours line, and describe the vehicle, the unit, and what it is doing.
- The team confirms the brand and model, and asks about the cargo so urgent jobs come first.
- A technician diagnoses the fault, either at your site or in the workshop.
- The repair or exchange is completed using the correct parts.
- The unit is tested, and any other wear is noted for your next service.
After-Hours Breakdowns
Breakdowns do not keep office hours. The after-hours breakdown service is on 1800 826 390, and the company runs its own road service vehicles to get you moving again. For vehicles caught outside Sydney, partner repairers around the country can help. Read more on the after-hours breakdown page and the nationwide service page.
Who Calls for Repairs

Whichever the customer, the first priority is the same: find the fault quickly and protect the load.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Do I Report a Truck Refrigeration Breakdown After Hours?
Call the after-hours breakdown line on 1800 826 390 <Link to call>. Have the vehicle location, the unit brand and model, a short description of the fault, and the type of cargo on board ready. These details let the team prioritise urgent loads and arrange a road service vehicle or repairer.
What Truck Refrigeration Brands Can Be Repaired?
Protran Solutions repairs Carrier and Thermo King units and also works on other brands, so a mixed fleet can use one repairer. The team confirms the brand and model when the call comes in, then diagnoses the fault onsite or in the Arndell Park workshop.
What Happens if a Repair Part Is Not in Stock?
The company stocks spare parts for major brands, including genuine Thermo King and Carrier parts, and reconditioned compressors and engines. If a part is not on the shelf, the team explains the available options, which may include an exchange unit. Exchange units are often quicker than waiting for a rebuild.
What Should I Do When My Truck Refrigeration Unit Alarms?
Check the cargo temperature and call for advice before the next delivery. Continuing to run a faulty unit can put the load at risk and cause more damage. Note any alarm codes or display errors showing on the unit, because these help the technician narrow down the fault.
Can Body Damage Be Repaired During a Refrigeration Repair?
Often, yes. Fibreglass body repairs are available, and the team can advise whether the work can be combined with the refrigeration repair. Combining the jobs can mean the vehicle is off the road once instead of twice, although this depends on the damage and the repair needed.
