How does one adjust the temp w/o one?

I've never needed to, the fridge has always worked perfect! (knocks on wood)

If you look inside the box on the right hand fins, you can see the sensor in a white plastic clip- move this up for colder, down for warmer.

Just wanted you to know that this worked. Thanks.

If you want/need a wider temp range adjustment dinosaur electronics makes a thermistor adjuster that plugs into the thermistor cable by the control board. Lets you adjust temp over a much wider range, or a dinosaur replacement ignitor board which has a built in potentiometer to allow you to adjust the temperature over a wider range.

otherwise, yup, sliding the sensor up and down on the fin is all you have.

Thanks. I'll look into these.

Thanks, I'll check there.

It changes the temp by about 4 degrees max. Doug

Hi,

The adjustment is crude and fairly unreliable--temperatures may vary by 4 degrees F. Many of us keep a remote sensing thermometer inside the fridge. I aim at 42 f for the "high" temp.
