the fridge is not cooling to the setpoint of 2 degrees, the frezzer however is working fine and maintaining minus eighteen degrees. the circulating fan for the fridge that is operated off the door switch appears to be running, but there is no apparent air flow and sometimes the motor for the fan can appear quite load. Also error E is present on the display.
