My current thermostat will hold my average temp at 35.53 and I need the temp to stay around 40. Is there an aftermarket thermostat I can use that will give me a tighter temp window? I need the fridge to stay between 36 and 46.
The True thermostat sits on the evaporator in a piece of tube attached to the coil. If it won't switch off at your required temp even at position 1 you can use an air temperature type thermostat in it's place. It will sit in the same place but the sensing end will coil up behind the fan. Get a bar fridge thermostat and it'll adjust to your needs.

Hi, if you can find the input of cool air there a slider to shut it make little way to in cool air to keep cool down.
If there a possible thermostat make it lesser so that thew thermostat will on and off.

It sounds very much like control board problem. The chances of both sensors at fault seems unlikely. Unusual that it is the exact same temp unless they are your setpoint requirements. I would advice contacting reliable fridge guy to check the cabinet. Hope this is of some if not much help.

That depends on if your model has a five or ten year warranty on the compressor. Your problem may not be warranty related. Check and see if the condenser is clean, check for a frozen cooling coil.

I have a GE refrigerator with the same problem of my food freezing in the refrigerator. I spoke to an appliance part person and they sold me a temperature sensor for 20 bucks. They said it would be located in the control panel, but I took the control panel off and can't find the sensor. I'm now looking on yahoo answers to find out where the sensor is located.

you have a gas leak , a refrigeration mechanic is required.
Sheila you will need two things and that is your model Number and the Serial Number then click here=> Ask Our True Service Technician I know because I asked without having the Serial Number but once I called or e-mailed back they were very helpful! True takes pride in their customers respect. If helpful please rate if not then ask me whatever you need to solve. my guess is the thermostat is defective or out of calibration. Thank You, Sea Breeze

I would not recommend replacing the thermostat with an air sensing thermostat. The factory thermostat senses the coil temperature and cycles the unit off when the coil reaches approx. 15 degrees and back on at approx 40 degrees. I have used air sensing thermostats in the past and at erratic times the unit will ice up the coil. The absolute best thing I have done is to remove the factory thermostat and install a Emerson digital ETC110000, put the sensor in the coil and set it for 15 degrees with a 25 degree differential and play with the settings if necessary. Go no lower than 13 degrees with a 27 degree differential. Wiring and installing the ETC will require a decent tech and is not a DIY unless you are very handy.
