I have a 2914 Thor Tuscany 40 XTE and have had it for over a year and still, for the life of me cannot figure out what the objects in the photos are supposed to do or be. They are below the overhead cabinet in the Living room and in the bed room both on the passenger side.

Temperature sensors for heat/cooling control.

They should go camping once in awhile and see how misplaced they are.

My front sensor is mounted on the outside wall a few inches right of the passenger window, and adjacent to the passenger door

. In order to maintain "normal" temperature I set the front @83 rear @ 78, that keeps everything about "78ish". One of these days I'll try to figure out how to relocate the front one. If I set the front a 78 the sensor gets heat from the outside wall and it feels cold enough to hang beef.

Our front sensor is on the outside bath wall, directly across from a huge window. No matter what direction we're parked in a CG & even with the night shades down, it easily gets heat from that window. I have to set the front thermo for 85 to keep frost from forming on our windshield.

Naahh, I wish -- if they listened, they might learn something!

In addition to the heat from the windows, if you have the under-cabinet lights on, it really throws the sensors off!

In my previous coach I switched the under cabinet reading lights out to LED. Made a big difference on heating my head
