Re: Hotpoint Mistral FF72 Fridge Freezer
The fan does run, but the issue seems to be it all stops running once under load. however as i have nothing in the frezzer at the moment both are running fine. But as soon as i put some warm food in the frezzer it will stop working again.

no this does run, but when the problem happens it is stopped, i am not sure what drives the fans, as this seems to be the issue.
What is the trigger for the fans is it the thermostats ??
And why when the freezer starts getting to warm does everything seem to stop. It is almost like something over heats and a thermal fuse cuts out.

No nothing has been replaced as yet, it is not off for long. i have removed the front covers inside the freezer comparment and it did have ice in there but not loads.

Thanks for the response,
all fans seem to stop as it goes completley quite, but the fan in the bottom of the unit as the back seems to stop as well.
The compressor gets very hot as well, is there a thermal cut out.
I have looked on the forum for other issues, and there are lots. but i cannot seem to match my symptoms with other posts.

Re: Hotpoint Mistral fridge/freezer not cooling
I have a hotpoint mistral apprx 6yrs old, when i seem to fill the freezer up and put it under load to Fast freeze, everything seems to stop, fans etc etc and it stop freezing. the display shows no error apart from a flashing thermometer when the temp drops to far.
I have taken the back and front off hoover’s out dust and spider’s
I noticed that the fan at the bottom of the unit was not turning.
it seemed to come back after a while but i just filled it up with frozen goods, and it has done the same again. Any help would be gratefully received.
