Some of the newer RV fridges have a makeshift T stat control, basically a thermistor attached to one of the cooling fins in the fridge section, you slide it up and down the fin to control the fridge temps.. No thermistor, no control you can adjust..
My 6 cu.ft Norcold has this thermistor on the fin. It's position has very little effect on the temperature or the On-cycle duration, not nearly as much as the thermostat position. Gas thermostat has High-Med-Low setting and I sometimes put it on the Low in the evening or when the freezer section is empty and/or items in the fridge section are not critical - and then it runs less often. Propane fridge sucks, but this is the easiest option in off-grid.
