Hello. I have a RF323TEDBSR. It was purchased in 2013.
I keep a temperature sensor in the fridge that monitors and logs temperature. I know that it's reading is correct; I've checked it against other thermometers and sensors.
I keep the temp setting at 35 and the fridge maintained this temperature well until a couple of months ago, when the average temperature jumped up to 42. The problem is that the fridge's temperature sensor is reading the wrong temperature. The fridge says it's reading 34 degrees, but my sensor inside says the fridge is 43. (Again, I have checked, and I know my sensor is correct.)
Through various efforts a service company and my own troubleshooting, I have tried replacing the evaporator cover (which comes with a new temperature sensor and evaporator fan) and replacing the main control board. I also read on a forum that one person had success removing the temperature sensor from its housing within the evaporator cover and moving it out into the main fridge compartment. I did that and it hasn't helped.
I have reviewed the steps at this link. I have read that some fridges have thermostat calibration settings, but I can't find that my model has this.
