Hopefully the OP doesn’t mind if I piggyback on this thread. We’ve had a stretch of warm weather here and I cannot get our fridge to cool properly (at least to what I feel is acceptable). It was 90 degrees during the day yesterday and 70 or so at night and humid. The fridge is a 4 door norcold set at 9 (max) and I cannot get it below 40-41 degrees in the fridge and 18-19 degrees in the freezer. I checked under the exterior access panels for obstructions and everything seems clean and functional. I ran it in lp mode overnight with no change.

I did note that yesterday evening the cooling fins inside the fridge were frosted over, this morning they were clear. The thermistor had made a small amount of corrosion under it on the fins so I moved it to a clean spot lower on the fin. I couldn’t feel any leaks around the door gaskets.

Are these temps as good as it gets for this fridge? If not, what can I try next? I’m not opposed to moving to a residential fridge if that’s the best option long term as I do not plan on being without shore power. (I saw some people saying to remove the white baffle at the top access panel to reduce internal temps?)
