Customer Question

Fridge is frequently starting to ice up. I think it's the thermostat. I've taken photos, but have no where here to upload them.

I will try and help with this problem Hotpoint RLA80 fridge

Good afternoon Phil, if your fridge freezer is freezing in the fridge compartment then there is a good chance that the thermostat has gone, to make sure it is the thermostat if you put a glass of water in the fridge compartment this should freeze, but if you are just getting ice building up on the back of plate then there is a possibility that the actual fridge freezer is not getting to temperature, this may be a compressor or gas problem, I have listed the video below to assist you in replacing the thermostat.
