Uneven cooling in fridge and annooying alarm every 10 hours!

PLEASE HELP!!

Fisher Paykel model E402B. Freezer to me looks like it freezes a little too much. Fridge section - Top is just about cool enough, bottom half of freezer - freezes food so can only use the top 2 shelves! Also has an alarm about every 10 hours, that wont stop going off until yu open the door and press the button.

Freezer section works well - but I wonder if stuff is too frozen.

Can anyone please help me.....please.....the alarm keeps going off in the night!!

thanks
Emma

Hi,

if the compressor is running your ref. should be getting cold. Their is a defrost timer but when it is in defrost the compressor shuts off. I think you do have a leak.

thanks,

Fisher & Paykel E402b - how to remove freezer cover?
If the compressor is running and it is not cooling, that suggests to me, that it needs re gassing.
Call a refridgeration engineer that has got the vacuum pump to empty and refil it with the correct amount of refridgerant.

Why is my Fisher Paykel fridge model E442B dripping water when I open the door
The defrost drain is blocked. It normally defrosts in the middle of the night, so you are greeted by a puddle of water when you get your milk for coffee. You clear it all up and it is fine all day, you come down next morning and water again. Correct?

OR, it is the water dispenser!

Fridge Freezer E402B not functioning properly.Solid red error light,with green light flashing up and dwn when push the = button.No air circulation to fridge,compressor seems to continious,also fridge
Natasha try this:
turn off the fridge's settings.
pull the power cord from the wall outlet
open the doors and keep them so for a few hours.
before these, take out the most perishable and keep in cool place.
after a few hours you may see a puddle of water under the fridge. clean the water and vaccum the fridge underneath and behind.
now reconnect power and set at recommended level. goodluck!

E402b freezing food
there is a little door between the freezer and the fresh food usually when that happens the motor on that door is bad and sticks open and allows the fresh food to get to cold since your freezer actually cools the fresh food side, sorry i cant tell you where it is on yours since they are are different, it will be where the cold air blows in the fresh food side and the part is not usually expensive and fairly easy to replace.

Fisher & Paykel Fridge Freezer E402B beeping when door closed
If the cabinet is warm inside it is a failed circulation fan, failed defrost causing the evaporator to freeze up, or it needs a refrigerant gas top up.

Beeping is just an alarm. It may be because of the more serious issues listed above but can also be caused by a failing door gasket, the door being left ajar (kids are famous for this) or the door has been left open too long deciding what to have for dinner.

I hope that answers all 8 of you :>D
