Why your True back bar cooler is thermostat issue
Catching thermostat issue early on a True back bar cooler is usually straightforward: temperature inaccurate, cycling abnormally. Bad thermostat or temperature sensor. On this platform it's most often a miscalibrated thermostat. Left unaddressed, food or stock can spoil within hours.
Most likely causes

- Failed temperature sensor
Known True back bar cooler weak points

Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Before booking a repair, compare the reading against a separate thermometer placed in the same spot for an hour. Beyond that, if the setting's right and it still misreads, the sensor or board needs testing with a meter, and a wrong guess here means paying for a part that wasn't the problem.
