Norcold Fridge Model N305R not cooling bottom

OK, here is an update.

When we got home from dry camping yesterday morning, we plugged the camper into 110 outlet and turn the refer on. This morning everything is working perfect, the freezer is minus 10 degrees and the cooling bottom is 30 degrees.

What do you want me to check next?

Do you think it could be the tstat for LP?

I assume that I have an LP problem only? I was thinking about turning off the LP tanks and disconnecting my LP line at both ends and blowing it out. If that don't fix it, I may need to replace my regulator?

We looked for a cooling fan and there is no cooling fan nor has there every been one. Which is a good thing since 90% of our camping is dry camping without electric.

Just so you know, while dry camping last week I disconnected my 12 volt batteries and the LP to the refer stayed on.
Thanks!

If after 24 hours the refer is NOT below 38 degrees and the freezer is NOT below 10 degrees, your cooling unit is BAD.

We were actually freezing ice in our freezer to put in a cooler for our food while dry camping on LP. Could the unit be bad and still freeze water?

Thanks Doug!

You should have HI -MED-- LO settings on the gas knob.
Thats correct and I saw the flame go from LO to Med and Hi as wife turned the knob through each setting.

I actually put a small cordless fan inside the lower vent while we were dry camping last week and it didn't help.

With The upper vent off I see an angled piece of wood to divert air toward the cooling unit, I will have to remove it to look for a fan.

We are back home now and hooked up to 110 AC power so I can try more things. By the way, my IR THERMOMETER seems to work on the back side of the freezer showing minus .01 degrees. It registered -8 dry on LP while camping.

1. The Thermister is NOT a Thermister. It is a silver capillary tube that runs from the 120 Tstat to the fins on the evaporator.
2. Your Gas tstat selector IS the tstat for the Gas side. You should have HI -MED-- LO settings on the gas knob. Unlike older BYPASS gas tstats, this system does NOT alter the flame height when temp is reached. HI is the coldest setting.
3. Your model SHOULD have a 12 volt cooling fan on the backside between the outer wall and the back of the cooling unit. You may not see it, you may have to remove the upper outside vent/door to see it. IT MUST BE RUNNING FOR COOLING TO HAPPEN. Some models do not have this fan(roof top venting), but for your type of install they are required, especially if NO roof top vent and the cooling air has to come in the bottom vent and then come out the top side vent.
4. WHILE YOUR MODEL IS not 3 WAY (dc BEING THE 3RD heat supply) you should have a 12 volt and neg wire connected to supply power to the cooling fan.
5. Your Tstat sensor tube connects to the 120 Thermostat and then goes to the evap fins. You have 2 separate tstats on your refer. A GAS tstat and a 120 Tstat.
6. The BEST way to test is to connect the 120 element direct to an 120 extension cord for 24 hours. Level the RV and this bypasses all controls. If after 24 hours the refer is NOT below 38 degrees and the freezer is NOT below 10 degrees, your cooling unit is BAD.
32 to 38 is the refer temps and 0 to 10 is the freezer temps. Use a cup of water after 24 hours to measure the refer temp.
DO NOT USE A IR THERMOMETER. They do NOT work for refer temps. Doug

more info.

It's in a 2017 Starcraft TT. Upper and lower outside vents. NO fan and does not require any 12 volt DC at all. The fridge worked well in Jan, Feb, May & June trips. It will drop the fridge about 10 degrees at night and freezes everything fine in the freezer. My research shows a lot of these Norcold Fridge Model N305R not cooling the bottom of the fridge but nobody says what the fix was. A lot of posting about the thermistor but nothing useful? I am pretty sure its the thermistor. Like I said earlier, my thermistor is preset and attached to the 5th fin from the right. Where is the other end of that thermistor attached?

Need more info. Is this in a Tent Camper? What type RV is it in? Does it have 2 outside exterior wall vents upper and lower? Does it have a rear ventilation fan? You do know the refer HAS to be level for operation, except when in transit? Doug

PS, 24 hours out of level can ruin the cooling unit. A Blocked cooling unit will still freeze the freezer.
