Good morning, Bill.
I've got the thermistor placed about mid way up the fin on the far right side. Over the past 24 hours, the temp inside has remained between 32 and 36 degrees, and the ice cream is the freezer is solid again (most important!).
I have not checked the exterior fan but I assume it is still running full out. Regarding the outside air flow, are you saying you don't think the exterior fan should be placed up near the exterior fins pulling the air off them, but rather should be placed lower in the compartment pushing the air over the head exchanger?
Yes, we've use the ice packs previously, but didn't have to for the past couple of days. Or fridge side is westward facing, but a tree helps block some of the direct sunlight. I had thought about get a reflective surface but want to resolve other issues first.
Thanks again!
