Norcold 1211 refer not cooling
I know there are experts on here who will probably have experienced this problem and fixed it. A couple of days ago I came home and the ice cream in the freezer was soft. Right away I realized someth...

Is it in a slide out?
Without the fans working it won't cool properly
Even if it isn't in a slide out the fans need to work.
They are controlled by a snap disc t-stat clipped on fin of upper condenser.
The t-stat turns them on at 130*F and off at 115F.....condenser tube temps.
Also from what I have recently been told the cooling unit may have failed due to blockage. Blockage in tubing after the upper condenser will allow freezer to cool properly but not allow the food section to cool off.
Is there the same lack of cooling on electric and propane?
Temp set button pressed........flashes for 10 seconds means fridge has swapped to 'Backup Operating System' which maintains fridge in operation when the thermister has failed (or been disconnected). I assume this happened prior to you unplugging thermister???
Get those fans in outside compartment working (jumper out t-stat and see that they work). Then replace t-stat.
Test thermister by placing it in a glass then pack it in ice and a splash of water. Wait a couple of minutes and check resistance via connector at light---two bottom slots. Resistance at 32*F should be 30,000-32,000 ohms) Replace thermister if test bad.
If after those repairs and food section still does not cool down the cooling unit has blockage. Which means cooling unit replacement
