Thank you so much. My husband who is 76 has just changed our thermostat. Thanks for great instructions.
Extremely helpful video, thanks very much for sharing
Great instructional video with fantastic insights. Thank you
Great video. You saved me because I took a picture but it wasn't good enough to distinguish between all the brown wires!
Great tutorial sir. I really liked the idea to take photograph. I always label with paper tape.
Thanks for showing this helpful video.
You just made this thermostat replacement easy to do
Thanks, I just replaced my thermostat. :D
Thank you for a great tutorial. It gave me the confidence to fix my very cold fridge freezer myself.
I identified an identical thermostat on your web site and ordered it.
One question:
What is
Fridge Freezer Thermostat Centre Post Kit: What is CENTRE POST?If the repair goes as well as your video, I'll buy you a beer as per your web site!Many thanks
Nice video Sir, I have a Hotpoint RFA52 P fridge freezer, Milk goes off as the top fridge compartment does not cool off below 16c even when the thermostat is set to max 5 position and I have also tried the boost button to permanently ON and still no joy, The fridge hums OK like the compressor is running fine, indeed I even went to test the motor running capacitor which stated a value of 4.5uF 400v and when I measured its value using a multimeter it showed just 3uF, so I replaced that again with no joy, I have a plug in watt meter and initially the compressor draws 140 odd watts and then goes down to about 40 watts, but once you switch off from mains or when it cuts off by the thermostat reaching cold temperature, it doers not restart as such whereby the compressor hums and the rear heat dissipating fins stay cold, normally they should become warm to touch which is an indication of chilling.
So now the fridge would continually stay on humming but not cooling any more. Does this sound to you to be gas problem? has some gas leaked away? is this why the freezer compartments stays solid iced yet top fridge part stays warm around 16-18C in 25c ambient room temperature. Appreciate your help. many thanks
Thanks for sharing this great video :))

Thanks for the video was very useful.
how to weld aluminum capillary tube in the dryer filter of these refrigerator, we do not have cold solder in the national market that in my country.
My fridge is on the blink, it's working, but it's over-cooling on the interior back wall's upper half which has a frost/snow build up forming within a week to the point that it has to be defrosted, whilst the lower half isn't cold to touch as if what's behind it isn't functioning.
The thermostat control also isn't functioning, & the compressor is charging all the time. On the exterior back the radiator grill is warm on one side all the time whilst on the other side it isn't.
Any suggestions as to what the problem is appreciated, have had the Hotpoint/Whirlpool engineers out but all they did was fit a new thermostat immediately without any diagnostics, & when that didn't resolve it gave up saying it's beyond repair.
Hiya great video thanks just a quick question I have a Hotpoint HM315NI but the thermostat that is faulty and currently fitted isn't the same as the HM315NI thermostat I've ordered? It doesn't have the double connector point.. Is it possible to fit this and only connect one brown?
hi i was wondering if you would know if temp settings would be same or diff on a single door manual defrost mini fridge/freezer dorm style vs normal 2 door home refrigerator/freezer...i think they would be diff temps becausue in a mini fridge/freezer the temp probe is mounterd underneath the freezer compartment and the temp probe in a standard home refrigertaor /freezer is inside the refrigerator section.....i just installed a mini fridge one in my regualr fridge and it does seem to work now ....prior to this the compressor would not shut off....now its turning on and off as temp reeaches bur like i said i believe the temp on off is diff in a mini manual defrost fridge than a normal home fridge
Thank you vety múch
What software / tester are you using to measure the temp and current ?
just watched the great vid but my stat only has 2x single browns and 1 single black. the son pulled them all of and didn't take pics. I now one brown goes to the light switch. If i treat them the same as your vid but as single wires will it still connect to the same numbers so single brown to 3 single black to 4 and other single brown to 6 and will the single brown to 3 be the main feed. have looked all over internet for a diagram but to no avail. thanks very much.
How do I change a FFA52P thermostat that is in the front top valance of the fridge?.
For what is the two white wire from right side?
Good evening sir
The light blew when I changed it ??
Hi Paul, I see that fridge was a wet wall model...is the thermostat a VT9 or a VXO type? I have a basic value fridge from Argos that's playing up and unable to find the correct replacement thermostat
chr11sf I
when i open my fridge door, refrigerator light not work. why?
I just replaced a thermostat on a Hotpoint HM315NI fridge/freezer but the compressor just kept running even after the temperature in the cabinet dropped to about zero. This was after running for around 20 hours. Turning to the off position does indeed turn it off. When turned back on there is a long delay before it starts up again but it is still cold inside so should not start until the temperature drops. I connected Live in to 3, compressor to 4 and bulb to 6. Do you think the new thermostat is faulty?
This is happening to me did you ever find a fix for your problem
How did you solve it?
@@seank026 Did you find a reason?
sorry, forgot to say it's a hotpoint hm325ni.
Hi I have a Hotpoint RFA52 Fridge Freezer. The compressor is running all the time and there is ice on the backwall of the fridge compartment . Here is what I have done so far - I have changed the thermostat - problem still exists , I checked the door seals , they seem to be ok . Please help - what else could it be ?
Eamon, what did you do? What was the reason?
My fridge is KIC double doors, the lower part is not cooling but the upper part for freezer ( meat, fish etc.) Is cooling, what is the problem? Can all KIC thermostat work in all the KIC fridges?
your gas is low,used to have same issues
hi. my fridge is a RFA52 iced diamond. the fridge isnt cooling anymore and the milk is always warm. in your opinion what will be the part that needs replacing
if the motor is not running test the thermostat if the motor is running then you may have a gas problem

Maybe a good idea to add a list of tools you may need ...just a thought
i agree if it was anything odd i would normally say but as its a general repair to find the fault i take it that most people have multimeters screwdrivers etc. but thanks for your thoughts. Please remember to subscribe to our channel

If you feel you needed a tool list I would say for yours and your families safety step away from the big white box!
No mention of the red flag/ red marking tape on the capillary tube ? Suppose logically it should just show outside the locating tube to be the correct length inserted.
Have not found any mention anywhere else on youtube either. Just surprised as the length of the capillary logically makes a difference.
Hi, what red marking tape on the capillary tube ? I ordered a thermostat and didnt see any on mine. Im not sure how far to insert the capillary wire in to the capillary tube ? As the tube is hidden inside the fridge ive been pushing it in until it stops. Also what does the end of the wire it fit into ? I have a Whirlpool art 531-1/h fridge freezer
Are you perhaps related to Johnathan Ross at all?
no no and no lol
Can you do us a favour and please share this video on your timeline Facebook twitter etc .

Stay safe
Useful stuff but get your head out the way or move the camera around.
more light would have helped. The nice view of the back of your head wasn't useful
What do you do if the thermostat capillary is to long than the original one
@@calvinmhlanga4132 Good question, im assuming it cant be cut ? Also as the capillary tube is hidden from view i guess you just push the wire in until it wont go any further ? Perhaps someone who knows can answer
