Hello George; My name is Peter. I am a retired field service refrigeration technician. The error code is either a bad freezer fan, which is more likely, or a bad control board.

GROUND YOURSELF BY TOUCHING SOMETHING THAT IS BARE METAL. STATIC ELECTRICITY WILL KNOCK OUT A CONTROL BOARD. Push the reset button only once. Open the refrigerator door while holding the light switch button in. Hear the fan? Go into the following website, put in your model number and select parts. Parts and diagrams will appear. Water Filters Lawn Garden Appliance Parts You can purchase the parts for allot less over the internet. If you call a service company, they will double the cost of the part and probably charge you $250.00 or more for labor. The labor cost for a bottom freezer is allot higher than a side x side or top freezer because of the difficulty to access the freezer components. Bottom freezers and units with the ice maker or ice bucket on the door are the worst. On my daily service calls, 65% were for either Samsung or LG. Next time stay away from these and the above.

How do you know that it stays on?

I think that is a fuse blown error code

FF is usually a Freezer Fan error code. A qualified service tech needs to look at the unit, checking for iced over fan motor, loose plug connection, ect. Pleazer Appliance...

You have a defrost issue. Thus the code.Check the back wall of the freezer section. Do you see frost? Yes means that the sensor or the heater is shorted? The control seems fine but it could be bad. Can't tell with out tests being preformed. Usually the sensor that goes bad. I can help you if you are up to disassembling and testing. Do you have tools and a multimeter?

check if the water supply main valve for the unit is fully opened. if it is , check for obstructions in the line. if waterline has no obstructions , find out if water solenoid valve is working fine. with all the mentioned working alright but problem is still present , call a service man .thanks.

Compressor may be bad - do you hear motor running??? It may need freon. Airflow may be blocked -- keep area clear just like intake vents on floor, must be kept clear to allow proper air flow.

Droken water line inside fridge line

Red light on for High Freezer Temperature Warning or freezer not cooling, but fridge is and a lot of noise from compressor. Also, fridge drain hole blocked, water in bottom of fridge. This is a common fault in Hotpoint Fridge Freezers and can also happen if the door has been left open or has been a power cut. 1. Turn off fridge freezer, or at least turn down the freezer temp to minimum, though not ideal. 2. Open freezer door and remove all drawers. 3. Remove the back panel on the inside of the freezer. This is held in place with 4 screws, which might be 6mm hex head or star allen head. Pull the panel out. 4. Behind where the panel was, there is a cooling element for cooling, pipes, and below this a temperature sensor. If the fridge freezer is not switched off, then fold together a few layers of tinfoil and wrap around the sensor. 5. Use a hairdryer to slowly melt the ice. Melt it around areas where it appears to be hanging on, such as the corners of the cooling element or bolts, as well as any thin sections below the main block of ice around the cooling element, which will be supporting the main block. Use a plastic ice scraper to remove ice but not near pipes or sensor. Warning: Be careful using electrics around water & melting ice & drips. 6. Below the cooling element, there is a drip channel & drain hole. If this hole is full of ice, pour a small amound of warm water down, leave for 10 seconds and pour a bit more until clear. In the fridge, clear the drain hole in the same way. Warning: Do not pour a lot of water down, as this water drains onto a tray above the hot compressor at the rear of the fridge freezer to be evaporated by the heat of the compressor and the tray will only hold a small amount. 7. When all ice is removed, dry all moisture. Put the shelves back. Close door. Turn on fridge freezer. Turn up the freezer temperature to your normal setting. Turn on fast freeze if available. After 1 hour, check with a thermometer. It should be cold enough after 1 or 2 hours.

Thermal overload is kicking bad compressor most likely or starting cap is bad

Take a look at this video.

Happened many times to me over the years there is a spade connecter that has become dis-connected from the vibration.Pull out bottom tray(mine),Unhindge the ice shute.The outer shell will then pop out with moderate effort.Unplug the wire harness to the display then remove about 4 screws and a cover will come off exposing the loose wire connection to the solinoid valve,I suggest crimping the female connector until it fits quite snug.Then re-install hardware.
