Another evening of additional troubleshooting.
The magnet trick does reset the relay, but does not clear the fault. Will be scheduling a visit to the nearest authorized service center. The recall correction unit is at Rev D, not the final Rev E. That issue will be addressed directly with Norcold.
There was 12 VDC on the supply side. With a magnet in place, there was 12 VDC on the demand side. At no time did the red LED go out.
So far as Norcold not dealing directly with consumers, to a point I understand. To another point, it disrespects my 40+ years of electronics experience which includes working on strategic ICBM communications systems, heavy HF & Air Traffic Control Towers while in the Air Force. A simple swaptronics of an faultily designed over temperature 12 VDC control circuitry is well within my wheelhouse.
As mentioned, the mystery leak is most likely a separate issue. My intentions are now to cap off the icemaker supply line. Ice cubes I can live without. Not so much with extraneous water leaking into the walls, onto the floor, et al.
Stay tuned, will be scheduling a service call tomorrow.
