Thermostat sensor location on Winnebago Suncruiser 2016

My 38Q has two AC units and the thermostat is in the hallway between the washrooms and just back from the kitchen. Sometimes the number 1 which is the front will run well beyond the room temp. It is 71 according ot a room measure on stand alone but I had to turn the thermostat to 74 to get it to stop. Sometimes it is even 4 degrees greater. The rear seems to be consistent. I am wondering if anyone can tell me where the sensor for the front AC is located. Perhaps I have a light close which is influencing it slightly.

Makes sense. That is an area that is warmer. I insulated above the cabinets which helped a lot but my matrix box, dvd, and two dvr's are located in that cabinet as well.

My remote sensors are on the bottom side of upper cabinets both front and rear. Not sure where yours are but not likely on an outside wall. I would say your 4 degree offset is pretty typical. I usually set mine at my preferred temp of 74 and end up moving it up when I 'm cold or down when I am too warm..
