It will then stay off until the inside temps come up a bit to temps that are still too cold, for both sides. The refer side gets to about 30 degrees and the freezer side gets to about -10 degrees. I assume it is the thermostat but am not sure what needs replacing and if I can do it. I'm quite handy, but have no experience with refers. Thank you for your help, in advance. Lane
