Freezer shows F08 and the internal fan does not run, causing uneven temperatures and frost buildup.

Safety first: Disconnect the freezer from mains before accessing internal panels.

Access the evaporator fan:

• Remove drawers and the internal rear panel to expose the evaporator and fan assembly.
• Locate the fan motor and blades, usually mounted above or in front of the evaporator.

Inspection:

• Check for heavy ice buildup around the fan. If present, fully defrost the area using a bowl of hot water placed inside the compartment (door closed) or a hairdryer on low, keeping it away from plastic parts.
• Spin the fan blades by hand; they should rotate freely without scraping.
• Inspect the fan wiring and connector for damage or loose contacts.

Testing and repair:

• With the fan disconnected, measure resistance across the motor terminals. An open circuit indicates a failed motor.
• If the motor is faulty, replace the evaporator fan motor with the correct Indesit part, transferring the fan blade if necessary.
• Ensure the fan shroud and wiring are reinstalled so that airflow is not obstructed.
