How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the freezer before accessing the control board. Risk of electric shock.
- Power reset: Disconnect power for 10–15 minutes to clear any temporary logic fault. Reconnect and observe operation.
- Check for overheating or overcooling: If the freezer is too warm with frequent defrosting, or too cold with no defrost, suspect a stuck relay.
- Inspect control board: Look for burnt relay contacts or damaged components on the PCB.
- Replace control board: If a relay appears damaged or the error persists, replace the main control board with the correct Hotpoint-Ariston module.
