Temperature Sensor Error

Any idea where this sensor is located on Winnebago Forza?

Wow, apparently at the North Pole! You should find two black plastic sensors located one in each zone. I have one in the bedroom and one on the kitchen cabinet that faces the sofa. I’m not sure that’s the problem though.

Look for a small round plastic dot or button mounted on your wall. Usually one in the bedroom and one in the center of the coach somewhere.

Those thermisters tell the RV the inside temp. When they read wrong they are either defective or a wire has fallen off the back inside the wall.

They look like this:

That’s a much better answer than I had. So, thank you.

We have experienced the same thing on our 2019 Forza 34t. Can't get the dealer service to do anything because it's intermittent and hard to replicate. But it is only in Zone 1. The previous poster is accurate re the sensors. I haven't checked mine. But I found that making sure the filter is clean seemed to help.

What year, model, length and as complete info as you have? The sensors are listed in various places on different RV. One general area seems to be across from the TV????
If you can define which area is zone one, it will also cut the chase on looking at the drawings. Front, back, middle of the RV?

IT's helpful to insulate the back of the front one, as it can pick up false temp indications from the hot water heater which is located adjacent to it in the cabinet.

My 38W Forza has zone 1 next to sink and zone 2 next to rear bath entry door. You may be able to switch them to see if it is a bad sensor or other problem.

I had the exact same error on my 2019 Forza 38F and it actually wasn't the sensor, it was the main control board that controls all your electrical. The thermistors are cheap enough to replace for testing, but if it isn't the problem, you will more than likely need to return unit to dealer.
