cupboard cracks and freezing fridge.

Has anyone any experience with hairline cracks on moulded overhead cupboards at bottom round,or, with a Dometic fridge with no temperature adjustment running too cold [the temperature sensor has been replaced to no avail]. Our unit is a '08 16, bambi.

Is the problem on both gas and electric?

The placement of the sensor on the fins can effect the sensor.

Check the location of your against another ref.

Make sure the control wires are connected to the board and they are tight.

How about a picture of the crack in question? I have repaired cracks in the interior end caps but want to see what you have.

Just saw this post.

Hairline cracks, on a new coach suggests bad vibration. Find the cause.

Reefer in a runaway mode??

Possibly, back to vibration, that fractured the thermocouple, which would let the reefer get as cold as it can, without any control.

Check and see if that fridge has a recall notice. If I remember there was a problem at Dometic a couple of years ago but I don't remember what the recall was about.
