    Norcold Fridge too cold/Freezer Not cold enough.

    My problem with my fridge freezer is the fridge side is at 35, but the freezer is only at 25! Control is set to 4. If I go colder in the settings the fridge gets too cold. I have added the extra fan on the top of the slide to get rid of excess hot air when it is warmer out.
    We are full time in our RV so the freezer is kind of important.
    Any ideas on what I can try to get the freezer colder without freezing the refrigerator section?

    If this has been discussed earlier I did not find it with a search. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated and TYIA.

    I was going to mention ambient temperature but you said you're full time so suspect it is normal. I'll mention that many refrigerator/freezers that only have one control/thermostat in the refrigerator section have a very hard time keeping the freezer section cold when the ambient temp is low (below 50°). This is due to the run time to keep the refrigerator section satisfied is too short to keep the freezer section at the normal 0°.
