My small refrigerator in my computer room seems to be sympathetic to the outside temperature, regardless of what the inside temperature is. We have kept the thermostat set at the same temperature inside, and the computer room tends to be warmer than the rest of the house, but if it gets cold or freezes outside, my little refrigerator decides it is going to freeze all of the drinks on the top half of the fridge. And when it warms up outside, the fridge goes back to normal. How that would be connected is beyond me.

Come to think of it, the fridge is against an exterior wall, so it might be affected by the outside temperature more than I think.
And, I think you are right. Even though the house's thermostat is set to the same temperature, that does not mean the temperature is the same throughout the house. Normally the computer room gets pretty hot, especially in the summer, no matter what you set the house's thermostat to. And in winter, it isn't nearly as hot. So there definitely is a temperature difference, now that I think about it.
I did adjust the dial in the fridge to a lower temperature. I changed it from 7 to 6, whatever that is supposed to mean. Hopefully it will stop freezing my drinks. :-)
