Not sure if you are directing your question towards a permanent mobile home or RV. Mobile homes (ie permanent locations) have 120v/freon systems and any home style fridge will work provided you have...

Clif...I looked back through the posts and I did not see one where you

Shoe2728....See my earlier post. That won't work because it is the thermister that varies resistance with temp. A potentiometer holds the same resistance regardless of temp.

Not sure where you got term "infinite resistance", but to me that is confusing and not really relevant. Think of it this way, as the Thermister approaches 0 ohms (sensor is really warm), the computer...

RR - your are testing the plug end of the Thermister AFTER you unplug it (not the board). The sensor end either is at room temp or in a glass of ice water. The resistance of the thermister changes as...

When you unplug it again check the resistance of it. It should be about 3-4K ohms (or less) when the sensor is placed into 65 or so degree water and 8-10K ohms (mine was about 9.2K) when placed in...

Sounds like it is working better. I think just about everyone has some issues when the outside temp goes real high. Maybe you could install a small fan that blows onto the rear fins?

RR, that won't work. Installing the Potentiometer into P2 by itself will not allow the fridge to cycle. That's why the POT is wired in parallel to the existing Thermistor. You must have a fluctuation...

I have no idea but with the Thermister out, I would have thought it would have been much colder than 37. I am not sure what that does to the heating element. The thermistor is what tells the fridge...

Clif...both you and Jason could try removing the Thermister plug and see what happens. I would not do it without checking the temp every 2 hours or so though. Not sure if you are trying both gas and...

38 fridge and 107 outside sounds pretty good. When you cool the camper down, it may drop even more.

Rollingrock...if your fridge is like mine, turning the knob all the way left ended up with a 28dg food section. Hope you don't have food in there or it will be frozen by tomorrow night!

Do a search for "refrigerator coil fan". There is a link in that posting. If your fridge is in the slide, it is easy to do. If not, it is still fairly easy, just a bit more difficult to get the new...

Could be a bad temp Thermistor or main board. SmokemanGRP (Greg?) wrote a good explanation about May '06. If you unplug the sensor (P2 I believe) from the board (remove black cover) the fridge...
