The Hotpoint RFA52 Refrigerator has some known problems that occur often. Here are some easy to do solutions for the problems or error codes your Hotpoint might be giving you.
The light bulb may be burned out or not properly connected.
The doors may be opened too frequently, the temperature adjustment knob is not in the correct position, or the appliance may be overfilled.
The temperature adjustment knob may be set too low, causing food to freeze.
Possible causes include door not closing properly, high ambient temperature, or the 'Fast Freeze' switch being turned on.
This may occur if the appliance is not installed on a level surface or if there are loose items inside.
