Hotpoint FF72n Minstral

[geoff1]

This One is giving me the run around

Fault – freezer runs at -22 and the fridge at about +18.

Condesnor fan running
Baffle open
Flow and return pipes to fridge clear
thermistors seem to be reading correct values.
ok on self dia test.

But here is the issue.

The evaporater fan is hit and miss when it runs and how long for.

IE open and shut the fridge door and the fan will run for 3 seconds or 3 mins or maybe longer.
Door switch is not a problem and I have spaced door up to ensure it is hitting the switch
When the fan stops the feed at from the module also disappears.

Can this be a fault with module or have I missed something???
If it is module connect have it as programmed requires configeration – How??

Help

Had this fault in the past and it was a faulty evap fan – cut out intermittantly – new fan cured it

Hi

My initial reaction was that or the switch but no power is coming out of module to feed the fan motor.

yes had this before wants the fan motor get to a certain temp can go open circuit , had one that was bench run for hours but get it cold
and it went o/c

also more than likely yellow block thermister in freezer braking down is the problem 🙂
