My under counter hotpoint fridge has stopped cooling (last thing I wanted in this hot weather), this may be due to over stocking with food and drink.
The light is still coming on when the door is opened and the temperature dial appears to be reading number 5.
Any idea on a solution ?.
Do you ever hear the motor running? If the motor runs and the fridge doesn't get cold it could be that the coolant has leaked out.
Have you tried turning the temperature dial slowly from one extreme to the other and back again? You should hear a click as the thermostat cuts in and out to start/stop the motor. Lack of that could imply a faulty thermostat which shouldn't be expensive to repair.
