Elevated Fridge Temp Issue
We are planning on leaving in two days for a three week camping trip but am concerned about fridge interior temp on a Norcold N81X Model N811FRT. Here is what I know: Fridge location: slide F...

After one hour of ac operation the refer interior temp has decreased from 49.7 on gas to 44.2 on electric.
I also made some IR temp measurements on the black ammonia line starting where it exits from the burner box to the the first bottom horizontal run as it starts the progression to the top of the refer.
exiting burner box: 166 deg F
midway to first curve: 141
At first 180 deg curve: 119
Black tank inlet (accumulator??): 115
Black tank outlet: 132
First horizontal lower run: 132
I did try a 12V O2 Cool mini box fan both blowing into the bottom vent and also at the top vent sucking air out. Tried this for 30 min while monitoring refer interior temp it made little difference.
Is the LP regulator the most likely cause for low pressure or could the gas solenoid valve cause a problem. Where would you check gas pressure for refer problem? I checked the range burner again this morning and it appeared to be a good size normal blue flame.
Could you PM me a mobil RV tech recommendation (if you have one) for the North Dallas area just in case I need one? We live in Richardson near UTD. I am thinking it is unlikely that I can get our trailer into a service center on such short notice.
