-6*F in freezer is great temp....but with temp setting on MAX COLD (5) food compartment temps should be cooler then 39*F
May have some blockage beginning to occur
Remove cover on lower circuit board in outside compartment
P2 connector....left side middle area ....2 WHITE Leads
Unplug the connector from circuit board......thermistor wires
Run fridge for at least 12 hrs on AC Element and recheck temps
W/O sensing from thermistor the fridge will run continuously
Temp in food compartment should get down to 32*F IF the food compartment High Temp Evap Coil is fully functioning
R717 is NOT used in absorption fridges ---used in straight concentrate form in compressor chiller units
RV Absorption is ammonia, sodium chromate, water & hydrogen gas (or helium in 2 no longer produced units) at 300 psi
Leak in cooling unit and NO ammonia/Hydrogen ....non-refillable
