Refrigerator Temperature
Posted: Fri Oct 25, 2013 23:53
As a Newby I have lots of questions - glad you experienced folks are so patient!
I have used 2 differnet thermometers to check the fridge temp and find it at 40-41F. It's a Kenmore manufactured by the now defunct Woods Company of Canada. If I turn the dial to the coldest setting, the fridge freezes. If I nudge the dial just off that mark, it settles in at 40-41F.
I pulled it out to vacuum the coil etc only to find it totally enclosed save for the compressor.
I've read about overriding a freezer's controller but not about overriding a fridge's controller.
My wife will be more than suspicious if I suggest I'll have to use it for a curing chamber.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
