    I have a Hotpoint Mistral 8596 FF which is having issues with the fridge component. This seems to be not cooling at all with current temp at 21c and the freezer at -11. The thermostat sign is now flashing as well.

    I have tried to work out if motor in back of freezer has stopped but it does not seem to have and there does not seem to be a blockage of ice either to the fan.

    Anyone know best way to try fix this, is it case of perhaps the thermistor in fridge compartment needing to be changed?

    Possible thermistor problem but not a sure thing I’m afraid.

    Thanks for reply, I was thinking it could be this but would be good to try and know for sure, would this be the thermistor in freezer or fridge compartment?

    fridge actually went down to normal temperature yesterday and now has shot back up to 25!!

    Could this be thermistor or maybe the motor/fan not functioning correctly?
