    Hi there,
    wonder if anyone can help ?
    got a hotpoint mistral plus 8596p fridge freezer
    the freezer is at -18c , ok .. the fridge is +22c

    i have checked and done the following ..
    1. fridge been turned off for 48 hours, totally defrosted
    2. fan on rear back runs ok
    3. cleaned all fins and vents and underneath
    4. checked door switch .. ok
    5. electronic flap in fridge working .. ok
    6. door seals ok .
    7. found and soldered 3 dry joints on circuit board.
    8. moror seems ok warm and sounds like its spinning
    9. set temp on top — still no luck

    located evaporator thermister , green plug, brown and blue wires
    removed this , and got error code E2 .. bypassed it still no good
    the fan located in the freezer-rear panel top behind plastic cover
    turns on when you turn the main on .. it spins for about 10 seconds and then stops .. but the temp was +18 at the time
    maybe in time when its cooler it will start to spin again need to check tomorrow


    iam slowerly runnig out of ideas …

    can you help ???

    cheers

    Paul

    If you go into search I did an article sometime ago about this appliance. The gist of which is change the green and yellow thermistors and as long as the freezer to fridge ducts are not blocked if you still have the problem the module is duff.
