Good on you for searching and finding an answer.

Why not share what your issue was and how you resolved it?

Issue: Freezer was fine, but fridge was still too warm after 3 hours on.
Fix: Turn fridge on night before needed.

Having owned an rv fridge for over two Years. I can honestly say I do not understand it. 12 cu. ft. Model.

What works is time. Turned on ,24 hours before needed. Fill with lots of cold stuff plus 2-3 jugs of frozen water. Small d cell fan. Leave an open area thru top to bottom. No boxes in the middle of racks.

Ignore temp readings another 24 hours and it works swell.

Restock bottles of cold drinks daily if needed.

And here I thought everyone knew to turn on the refrigerator 12-24 hours in advance. And if it's an absorption type, make sure it's fairly level.

That fix always bears repeating. Most people don’t understand how most RV fridges differ from household fridges. They are a LOT slower to cool.

Another tip: Fill the fridge with already cold food.
