Dometic MB52 just freezing

Looking for some tips here. . .
I have a Dometic MB52 Fridge, and I can't get it to stop freezing everything. I have it on the lowest setting (barely on) and it's still freezing everything in the fridge. If I turn it any lower the fridge turns off. Any thoughts out there? Thanks!

Does it do that on both gas and electric? It will freeze up if the capillary tube breaks off at the thermostat. I had that happen with the same fridge and had to get a thermostat from a used fridge as they aren't made anymore.

I am looking for MB52 parts specifically the inside door panel. Do you still have the fridge? Thanks!
