Re: Hotpoint Mistral FF92

Have you checked that when you replaced the thermistors that the freezer compartment thermistor is located infront of the back panel and not behind it. The thermistor feeds through a hole in the right of the panel when reassembling. I found in the past that if the thermistor is at the back the freezer tends to form ice blocks between freezer and fridge.

Re: Hotpoint FF80A fridge thermistor

Hi Hotpnt,
The fridge displays the EA error code which I was advised means a baffle error. The baffle remains permanently open even when the fridge temperature is below its setpoint. I have concluded that the fridge thermistor is OK since it appears to be giving roughly the right indication of fridge temperature.
Can’t be sure now whether the baffle servo is faulty or the pcb. Have checked the signals from the four wires to the servo and the black pair have approx 11.5 volts across them.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks Dales-Electronic, Fridge Baffle is open. Can’t now be sure if this is consistent with the fridge being above its set-point. Any suggestions for why the baffle error might be showing in these circumstances?
