Based on the information provided, it seems like there is an issue with the cooling system of your Magic Chef HVDR1040B refrigerator. The flashing LEDs and the sequence of the numbers suggest that there may be a problem with the temperature control board or the thermistor.

Here are some steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

  1. Unplug the refrigerator from the power source for at least 5 minutes to reset the control board.
  2. Plug the refrigerator back in and try depressing the Set button again to see if the same sequence of flashing LEDs occurs.
  3. If the same sequence occurs, it's possible that there is an issue with the temperature control board or the thermistor. You may need to have a professional technician check and replace the faulty parts.
  4. In the meantime, you can try adjusting the temperature settings to see if the cooling system kicks in. If the refrigerator still does not cool, it's best to turn it off and not use it until the issue has been resolved.

I hope this helps!
