Re: Hotpoint Mistral Plus 8956P, Fridge not cooling
Update:
It seems my theory would was correct, I repaired the evap thermistor, but cuttign the original off and replacing it with parts from Maplins.
This repair cost me just a few quid, and is easy if you can work a soldering iron.
x2, 4k7 (4.7kOhms) @ 25 Degrees CelsiusThermistors
Maplins Part #: FX21X, Current Price: 89p each
The original Thermistor is 2K5 (2.5kOhms) @ 25 degrees celsius, which I couldn’t find available. However connecting the above Maplin parts in parallel.
Basically place them together and link or twsit the adjacent legs together, then solder them. Then solder the legs to the wires of your black 2core cable, blue and brown wires, polarity not an issue.
You then need to cover this with heatshrink, the glue/adhesive type is best to ensure water proofing.
Plug in re-asemble and basque in the outpouring of gratitiude from the other half. 😆
