little_sunshine 1 Report post Posted February 22, 2008 The fridge compartment stops cooling completely, but the freezer remains cold. First time happened called F&P down, changed some circuit boards and fan all NOT under warranty (only compressor is warranty more than 1 year), few months later again same problem. Problem is that the coils and motor inside the freezer keeps icing up, and when it does the fridge compartment stops working, so short term fix had to defrost freezer every few months. Had a few more unsuccessful repair attempts until last one 1-2 yrs back, got a 3rd party repairman to come look at it, dunno what he changed but luckily has been behaving itself since then, just makes some noise now and then. But I told myself next time it breaks down, its junking time. Dunno how much I spent on repair bills plus so much spoilt food thrown away over the years. Compared to my previous General Electric (American made) fridge, problem free for almost 20 years, still working when it was taken away by the karang guni man....Could you advice the model of the F&P fridge? Was thinking of getting the E411...I can't recall all but compressor was 5 yr. I think if other parts are not cover and usually it spoil earlier then the cost of repair would be high. Anyway most manufacturer had 5 yr on compressor. Sharp Fridge also not bad , nice and cheaper too.From my memory, F & P has 2 year warranty on fridge, but 5 years on compressor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
