I got it because it was the only unit that fit the space. Recently it only cools the freezer to 9 degrees above and the refrigerator to 45 degrees on the MAX setting. I changed out the thermostat and defrost timer but this did not help. The compressor cycles on and off about every 10 minutes or so. I opened up the panel at the back of the freezer and there is no ice and the fan is blowing. I pulled the unit out from the cabinet and the coils on the back are clean. I was concerned that there was an issue with air getting to the coils on the back of the unit however it performs the same in the middle of the galley. Prior to this it cooled well but had huge temperature swings.

I can't get a pro to come on the boat to fix it. They say their insurance won't let them. Any ideas where to look next? I am reasonably handy but I am running out of ideas.

thanks for any help

When I bought it, I hosed off the condenser fins to clean them. Apparently I got a little water somewhere it wasn't supposed to be because the condenser fan ran for a couple days continuous, then returned to normal operation of only running with the compressor. What controls the fan, is there a timer or relay? It seems that it typically runs a minute or so after the compressor shuts off so I'm lead to believe that there is some timer or something. But it looks to be wired to the same wires that feed the compressor. A few days ago, I moved things around to get a model number on the fan because the bearings are going out. Since then, the fan has been running continuous again. Something seems to be shorting out, just not sure what. Here are a few pics of the mess.
