I would say your after market Thermister system is the culprit. Since your test show a fully functional CU, the only thing that is a variable is a NON Dometic part---The aftermarket Thermister. THAT controls when and how the Refer cools. There are NO moving parts in the Cooling unit, all it takes is Gravity(being level) and HEAT to function. Doug
The OP stated that the problem was there before he installed the aftermarket thermistor. I'm still trying to figure out how the freezer hits -24F.
His original Thermister was a preset temp. Just because he changed to an aftermarket does not mean THAT new Thermister is not OK. He could have had the original bad, if he had replaced with OEM part, then that takes that out of testing. Doug
