Are you sure the statement that just because a little of something is good, doesn’t mean that a lot of it is any better wouldn’t apply here…
For the fridge to work properly it has to be operated level when stationary…
It needs good ventilation…
And it needs a precise amount of heat…
I am sure you are someone that likes to do it yourself, do nice and neat work for sure, but this looks like a new unit, possibly under warranty… if so why not allow the mfg. to repair or replace it… before they can use your mods as a reason for its failure…
(This warranty will be in effect for three years on parts and freight and two years on labor from the date of purchase by the Original Purchaser. It is suggested that the original purchaser retain a copy of the dated bill of sale as evidence of the date ofpurchase.)
Good ventilation would not require that the rear area be converted to a wind tunnel, and might actually alter the precise and required amount of heat needed to perk properly… maybe the preset temperature control is just faulty…
