SOURCE: HOTPOINT FFA70 FRIDGE FREEZER

I had this problem and it was fixed relatively easily. Get everything out of your fridge freezer and switch it off overnight to allow it to defrost.

In the bottom freezer compartment there is a panel behind the draws which you can remove but you will need a special tool from a DIY shop. Its like an allen key, but with a star shaped end.

When I got the panel off I found that the filament was covered thick with ice even though it had been off for hours. No wonder it wasn't working properly. I melted this with a hairdryer. You want to take your time with this as you could easily damage the freezer if you try chipping the ice out.

Freezer works perfectly now and is very quiet.

Hotpoint XA095. Where is the defrost timer please?

On a top freezer model, they are normally behind the panel in the back of the freezer.

This manual says it has a Frost Free System. Check the condition of the door gasket seal.

I have a hotpoint freezer which is self defrosting but its icing up and warning message keeps flashing up

There is defrost timer, that will shut off the freezer and turn on a heating element that quickly defrosts the cooling fins. then it cycles back on. If any part of that system goes out the freezer will not defrost.

Got a hotpoint ffa97, freezer was still cold and no alarm had gone off to say that that there had been a power cut yet the fridge temp had risen enough to curdle milk??\r\ntemp gauge was still showing...

Milk can sometimes curdle in a working fridge. But it does sound like your defrost system may be malfunctioning. Can you empty your freezer and inspect the defrost system behind the air circulator fan?

I know that defrost elements sometimes go bad and the controllers can pop too. You should check your operators manual and see how to put the fridge into manual defrost. *(it usually involves turning the fridge light on and off by hand. See if the freezer drains during manual defrost. If you have lots of food that dries out in a frost free unit the moisture contains a lot of contaminants that can plug the defrost drain. Which leads to a blocked air passage between the freezer and fridge sides.

You might want to get a small backup fridge for a while to run this down.
Or just use up the food in your fridge before running the tests.

Good luck and be careful.

Myfreezer works fine but my fridge only works for about 15 days and then stops working,when i unplug the fridge and let it defrost the freezer will work for another 15 days it is a hotpoint ff4dx fridge...

This is telling you that you have an automatic defrost problem.

Before I go on here the model number you passed appears to be a UK model.
63d99d9.jpg

The problem can be:

1. The defrost timer / control
2. The 60 deg F defrost bi-metal thermostat
3. Wiring
4. The defrost element.

Some info about the 5 year warranty is on page 11 of the owners manual: http://www.hotpoint.co.uk/hotpoint/_pdf/manuals/19506810502_UK.pdf

I do not locate the appliance parts manual for this unit as I am not in the UK.

Thanks for using FixYa.
