This issue has been very consistent with the deep freeze not occurring when the styrofoam is in place. This morning, for the first time with the temp settings at 0F & 37F, the freezer went to -9F and the fresh food was 36F.
Will use a bore scope to take a look inside the freezer. The only difference I'm aware of is that we've had a lot of rain recently and the humidity inside the house has risen above 60%. Seems like this points to the source of the problem being something other than air circulation; intermittent evap fan??? The damper was open and there was no obstruction. FF temp display seemed to coincide with the digital IR readings.
The old adage that I have found to be true seems applicable: "When something defies analysis, there's probably more than one thing contributing."

Your observation that the correct manual may help solve this, but my experience with the new "GE" is they promise to deliver and deliver nothing.

BTW, with J2 unplugged, there will be no readings available on the harness side; correct me if I'm out in space on that. :0)
