The fridge part is not keeping its temperature, the temperature gauge on the freezer door, which indicates the temperature of the freezer and the fridge, is showing that the fridge temperature rises then falls and does this continuously. the light keeps flashing and you cannot here the moto working, i don't believe the motor is the problem because the freezer holds its temperture. if you can find the problem please notify me on my email address and how and where i can get it fixed.
These fridges have an evaporator fan motor on both sides - the freezer and fridge side. The freezer can maintain it's temperature because that fan is working fine. I had the same problem, and replaced the evaporator fan motor on fridge side, and it solved the problem. Also, if your fan motor is not working well, or stops working, the evaporator is prone to ice build up, and will prevent proper cooling. You may want to open up panel on fridge side and see if that's the case. Taking a blow dryer to the evaporator and surrounding area (while fridge is off), or letting it sit for a few hours might solve the problem. Ultimately though, it appears as if these fan motors are prone to failure, and need to be replaced.
Remove the light panel cover 1 srew at top there are 3 screws remove these remove plugs for light and thermostat.
remove 4 srews on bottom panel and remove it is on with sticky tape so take care remove 2 plugs for motor use hairdrier to defrost the pipes at back, remove 5 screws to take motor plate off on my fridge the drain hole was full of ice defrost with hairdrier refit all parts and if the same as my fridge it should work ok
I have to turn of the electric then back on ,as the fridge freezer will not come back on after temperature drops ,the freezer seems to hold temperature ,and reaches temperature ,but fridge seems to take a lot longer ,i have had lots of engineers out but none can get it working ,

the freezer icon keeps flashing
Freezer is fine, but Fridge temperature keeps rising and falling several degrees with no consistency. The evaporator fan may be faulty - not sure.
the freezer lights keeps blinking and the tempature is dropping.
