Default Refrigerator cools but only when turned on manually
Brand: Other
Model Number: Uline compact
Age: 1 - 4 years

I have a compact uline refrigerator. It does not stay cool. When you turn on the cooling system manually by turning the temperature dial off and then back on, it cools the refrigerator just fine. But after a few days, it needs to be manually turned off and on again. I am guessing that either the thermostat is not gauging when the system needs to come on or a switch of some sort is burned out. Please help

It is most likely a faulty thermostat.

Can you please supply your model number?
