Perhaps I used the wrong term?  I'm talking about the electrical
gizmo, about the size of a 4 quarters stacked together, that the
yellow wire connects to (the yellow wire powers the rear fan on/off).
It's mounted on my dometic to the top set of fins on the back of the
unit. It's a bit loose, and I'm wondering if it's important that it
have a thermal contact with the fin, or if it just measures ambient
air temp?
