Dont forget to seal or tape the insulation wall that separates the hot from the cold side. Its right in the middle of the AC unit looking straight up. Mine had a few small leaks along the "walls" and could move very easy - so all of the mods add up over time. Others had said it was leaning sideways and leaking major cold air into the warm side so the unit thinks it colder than what it actully is inside the RV.
This sounded like a great "cheap handling fix" for an AC so I decided to go "all in", yank the thermistor out of the fins, and let it dangle.

No difference.

When blowing fan, output temp is 80 deg, and it will drop to 60 deg. within 1 minute when cooling is engaged. I get the same readings whether the thermistor is installed in the fins or not.

My AC is an "Advent" which I got from Etrailer.com to replace my Coleman. Is it possible that the Advent thermistor functions differently on this brand?
