Re: Hotpoint fridge freezer FF187E

I had the same problem with this model.

Reading up on various forums, apparently there is a design fault where ice builds up and blocks cold air to the fridge section. This causes a temp warning. I did a defrost and the flashing lights went out and the fridge starting to cool again. After a week the fridge warmed up again (although the freezer section is ok). The lights have not come back on but the fridge is useless.

I too would like to know if there is a long term fix as the fridge is less than 18 months old.
