Re: Constant alarm Fisher & Paykel E521T fridge

OK just to keep you all updated.

I finally get the F&P repair man out.

$180 and 5mins later my fridge is fixed.

It turns out there was a faulty wire (surprise…NOT) on the fan.

So I have a new fan and all is well. So far…only been 24hrs…

If I had known this and how easy it was (I watched) I coulda done it myself!!

Anyway thats it.

Thanks for all the advice/help

Hi all thanks for your replies,

OK defrosting for 24hrs in 37C heat…ie everything shoulda defrosted and evaporated/dried out. DIDN”T WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok I know I was expecting too much from that idea.

Turned it back on and both freezer and fridge compartments cooled well and quickly. Fans working fine from sounds of it. Just this bloody alarm started again. Also flashing light started as soon as I switched it back on, few hours later beeping resumed.

Chucked it all into sabath mode to get peace and quiet and sleep for now – ya gotta LOVE that invention at times like these.

Guess its time to call in the repairman.

Bugger!!!

Well to begin with I am going to empty it and turn it off for a day or two and restart it to see if that works. (cheapest option at this stage)

If not… well I guess its going to cost me…

Anyone know of a cheap fridge repairer in Perth Western Australia????

Thanks,

Rebecca

Hi,

Thanks Penguin for your prompt reply.

With the latest alarm I saw that the light flashing is ONLY the fridge door light. ie left bottom. It flashes at about 7-8 flashes per 10 beeps (approx 10sec) its green only.

From memory this is always the one, though possably once it was the freezer (top) light…I just can’t be sure. I don’t recal EVER seeing the right hand lights flash. So lets go with what we are sure about!! lol

Thanks for helping,

Rebecca
