The primary issue was that the refrigerator sensor and the portable one I put inside the freezer can sometimes read 20 degs different when the evaporator fan runs. The actual temperature can get down to -12 degrees and the refrigerator will still read 8 degrees.

There is good air flow or the temperature would not get down that low. I have ensured that there is a good clearance between the supply and return grills.

I am going to check the temp sensor and replace it if it doesn't ohm out right. If necessary I will relocate it.

I will update once the experiment is done.
