LG Refrigerator showing same "Set Temp" in "Current Temp"

[milindpatel63]

I have a LG Refrigerator GC-C247UGLW. It is showing the same set temperature in the current temperature field also.

If I change the set temperature, Current temperature changes too instantly to the same value. Describe Your Problem:

is your model showing current temperature separate with desired temperature ? please capture some screenshot from LG ThinQ mobile app, let see

The Lg thinq mobile app only shows the desired temperature. I thought via homebridge, i could get the current temperature somehow. I tried homeassistant, but it also doesn't show the current temp.

I bought this refrigerator this year only, so its fairly new model. So current temperature sensors should be present there.

unfortunately we can't get current temperature, api responsed desired temperature only

:( Anyways, can't do anything if its not available via API. Feel free to close the issue. Will see in future if there comes a way to the temp.

Meanwhile, I'll start looking into external temp sensor that I can somehow place inside refrigerator. Will comment here if I find a decent way.
