Whirlpool 6th Sense - Lights flash after blackouts?

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if they have had a similar problem. After the blackouts we had recently in Melbourne, our fridge has been working erratically. One symptom is the interior lights begin to flash on and off at the rate of about once per second when either the fridge or freezer doors are opened. Tried switching the fridge off for a few minutes but the problem returns after a few hours. Fridge is just out of warrant. Called Whirpool but they couldn't offer any advice and suggested I book a call with their service provider.

I am interested to know if anyone else has experienced a similar problem.

Regards,

Charles
