So the new thermistor arrived and checked out for proper R vs ambient per the table in the manual. Installed and ran fridge on AC for some hours with the thermistor on the 10th fin from the right per manual and Temp Setting at 4.
So far so good. Able to check fin temp with diagnostic screen 3. Have seen 24-30F spot checking and fridge and freezer temps are in the proper zones and holding apparently. Now I know about that 10 degree F diff, it helps understand that!
I want to confirm by using LP and actually seeing the flame go out and come back on cycling with the right temps holding, but it is looking good so far on AC.
Thanks to the info I got on here, it looks like I can fine-tune it if needed, by changing the Temp Setting and moving the thermistor and watching the fin temps and the fridge temps. I don't think the food cares that much though! Good enough is good enough.
So that's that, and on to whatever will be the next crisis in the RV. Always something! :)
