Temperature light flicking and the freezer defrost when light is flicking

The high temperature alarm or the red light indicator came on because the internal temp is high. This means that the temperature inside your appliance is still too warm. Keep your freezer/frig door closed and the light will go out in a few hours and you'll then be able to adjust temp or keep it as it was before defrosting.

'regulator'? Do you mean the thermostat? Modern fridge freezer thermostats don't make any noise because they are electronic and use a Thermistor electronic sensor. Is the compressor and fan running? It takes about 2 hours to get back to temperature. The control knob should always be set midway to start, then you adjust +/- depending on the internal temperature..

There's a capacitor by or on the compressor that probalbly needs replacing. This is the cheapest route .

home refrigerators are not dsigned to work in areas where the temps will drop below about 45 f to my knowledge there is no way to help wiht this problem. Thx peyton

These fridges have an evaporator fan motor on both sides - the freezer and fridge side. The freezer can maintain it's temperature because that fan is working fine. I had the same problem, and replaced the evaporator fan motor on fridge side, and it solved the problem. Also, if your fan motor is not working well, or stops working, the evaporator is prone to ice build up, and will prevent proper cooling. You may want to open up panel on fridge side and see if that's the case. Taking a blow dryer to the evaporator and surrounding area (while fridge is off), or letting it sit for a few hours might solve the problem. Ultimately though, it appears as if these fan motors are prone to failure, and need to be replaced.

hi. thanks for the question .You mean the freezer is frosting up. not the fridge . check the defrost timer. and termination switch. and defrost heater . one of those three parts has failed thanks the appliance doc

• Check the temperature setting
• Assure that there is enough room for air flow in the refrigerator or freezer
• Check for air flow restrictions in vents
• Test the temperature control
• Clean the condensor coils
• Check the door seals
• Test the door switch
• Test defrost heater
• Test defrost timer
• Test evaporator fan
• Check for a clogged drain tube
• Check for refrigerant leak

got a hot point iced diamond fridge/freezer, just got back off hols and red light on, all food defrosted with water running out of bottom. whats wrong?

Smilar problem, but the model is GTH15BBMFLWW

maybe its time your fridge to go to the service center. 5 years is a long time yaknow. have them check for the freon as it might have runned out.
