    Re: Hotpoint Fridge Freezer

    Hi, I am having the same problem the fan will only spin for a few seconds after the power is restored if left off for a while, The top of the freezer is maybe 0c and the bottom gets down to maybe -5c. The fridge seems to be at an ok temp though there does seem to be a bit of water collecting under salad draws. The link above doesnt seem to work and I am not really sure what I am looking for with the search function, Can you point me to the right thread.

    To add I took the back panel off and it was not iced up, I also got a multimeter and there is no power been sent to the fan other than for the few seconds when power is restored.

    Cheers

    Re: Hotpoint Fridge Freezer

    Is there a specific fault on the pcb as I have a friend who is an electronics engineer and I am sure he would be able to repair it. I am sure he could trace it, but if some one knows what the problem is, I am sure he would appriciate it

    So not a thermosat/thermistor problem then?? nothing that cheap Unit is only just over 12 months old, and reading on the net that some people had 3 PCB's in 3 years

    Hotpoint have 5 years warranty on all there appliances but you will have to pay the £90 call out,which is cheaper than a new fridge/freezer
