Originally dometic, after getting the run around for over a month I got grand design involved. At first they werent much help but after awhile they put alot pressure on dometic. Dometic was making alot of excuses for everything and would not admit the fridge had any issues.

I'm still not understanding how to connect the new switch. I see where the two red wires to the fans connect at the fins. Unfortunately, it is just about impossible to get my hand in there. What am I disconnecting? Where does the switch go. Where do those red wires connect at the end of this? I am paranoid about breaking something because I leave on a 16 day road trip in a week. Can somebody explain it like I don't know how to plug in a toaster?

I was confused also!
Contacted David at RV repair where I bought the 85 deg switch. He said the switch is intended to run an auxiliary fan. NOT to connect to any of The fridge cooling system. He and Grand Design said to remove or the 1/4” panel or cut it just above the 4 cooling fans.
We just cut the panel 2” above the bottom of the axcess cover bottom. Didn’t install the switch. Now fridge cool to 34 deg. In 6 to 8 hours in Florida 100 deg. Days. At a setting of 4.
Hope this helps and happy camping. We are headed to the KeyWest for a week on Monday.

I got the new fan unit installed and working. Now, back to the new 85° switch. Do I simply disconnect the red wires from the fin and leave them disconnected? The switch is then connected to the now empty terminals and I'm done?

This is pretty frustrating. The fans in the refrigerator are working great. I turned them off Saturday evening and yesterday (Sunday) morning, the refrigerator temp was 32 degrees. I was having visions of needing to turn up the setting! I turned on all four fans and let them run all day. The outside temp topped out around 90 degrees and humidity was around 30%. The refrigerator temp slowly climbed throughout the day and peaked at 41 degrees around 8:00 last night when the outside temp was just below 80 degrees and the sun hadn't been hitting the slide for at least six hours. In spite of the ever increasing temp in the refrigerator, the outside fans only cycled on periodically. I sure wish I could figure out where/how to install the 85 degree switch. I'm going to be needing the fridge in 90 degree weather for at least a week. I will have shore power so the fans can run as much as they need to.

Has anyone figured out how to quiet the fan on a Dometic refrigerator? Ours makes an obnoxious whine.
