Norcold 962 - Old Unit
A good friend of mine has a 962 and she's having an issue with it not cooling. She turned it off, defrosted it (because of the ice build up) and when she turned it back on, it's not working.
I've had her adjust the thermister up - but that's not working.
I'm having her:
Check for Flame on LP (at lease we'd know cooling is called for).
Check the Freezer for any sort of cooling.
It's from 1986 so it's possible it just died, but it's also possible the baffle is corroded or something like that.
My guess is the thermister is damaged and she needs to replace it - but given the age, it's going to be hard to find a replacement part.
On this unit, if you jump the thermister will it call for cooling or not?
If that's the case, then I can walk her through jumping the thermister and getting the unit working - at least until she gets a replacement thermister.
Thanks in advance!
