did you add a fan to your refrigerator?

I added one on the inside to even out the temp from top to bottom. My frig will freeze everything if I keep it closed for to long and the temp set above 2 or 3. I do not doubt that a fan in the vent would help in the summer but my problem is avoiding freezing not getting it to freeze. I use a separate Dorm Room Ref for our vegetables, eggs, etc.
It sounds like your thermostat may not be working properly. Does turning the temp control change the temp or does it stay the same regardless? Does it behave the same on Gas or Electric? 6 years ago the thermostat went out on the electric side of our Dometic while the gas side still worked fine.
So we would arrive with good cold ref on gas, switch to electric and then try to figure out why all our food was getting to warm. Eventually we figured it out, but we were blaming ourselves for leaving the ref open, blaming the heat on that side of the RV, decided we had to much food in the ref and the air was not circulating, etc. etc. Fixed the thermostat and yahoo all is well now.
