Dometic RM2852 died
Working on the motorhome last weekend, and went for a cold bottle of water. Whoops, everything is warm inside the fridge and the freezer has water where ice ought to be. Looked in the outside access...

One last note: on the old 110v power strip, the new core has the freezer at 27 degrees, the fridge at 34 degrees. In the end, it was worth the trouble.
What are you using to measure temps with :H
Freezer needs to get to 10*F before food compartment can effectively cool down.
Has to do with heat transfer....freezer low temp evap coil is 1st and the cold ammonia vapor absorbs most of the heat from freezer so very little absorption is available for food high temp evap coil UNTIL freezer is 10*F then food high temp evap coil has cold ammonia vapor available to absorb the heat from food compartment.
Freezer should be at least 5*F but ideal would be *8F or colder
especially with a NEW cooling unit.
Did you get freezer section sealed up and use enough thermal mastic \
