Justme, my living room thermostat is on the wall in my stairway to the bedroom. It gets bumped all the time and goes to a blank screen or switches to Celsius. Additionally, the air conditioner will run and time itself out before bringing temperature down to set temp. It requires turning the thermostat off for a minute and turning it back on to get it to continue running.

Sounds like a defect.

Its only the touch pad face plate that are defective. Call dometic they will send new faceplate no charge. I had 3 that were that way.

How long did you have to wait on hold to speak to someone? My calls to Dometic have been met with hour+ wait times and I end up giving up.

It was two years ago. You might hit their website. Might be able to do it all via email. you can check with your RV dealer too. they may just swap the face plates out for you.

I found my old posts in another thread with part numbers, and it looks like I contacted them via their webpage and never had to talk to anyone.

Here is link to that thread if you are interested.
