Dometic propane fridge repair
#12

            Well, I completed the install of the new replacement cooling unit. I opted for the new unit rather than a refurbished one. I did the testing today and it seems to work fine, both with ac and gas. I powered it up, came back in an hour and it was cooling. I need to solve a leveling issue with the coach before I turn it on full time.

For those who want to do this: In my coach, the fridge is only held in place with two screws up top and two below inside the coach. I had a wheeled platform and the fridge slid onto the platform. I rolled it into the living room, then put the fridge face down. The video from the website is a good one and it shows each step of the process, first taking off the door handles, etc. I took plenty of notes and pics to recall later. There is only one issue the video didn't cover, so if you do this, be aware: once you drop the new cooling unit in the back of the fridge, you may want to stand it up to align screw holes in the freezer section. Then, put it back on the floor and attach it to the rear of the unit with screws. Other than that, it was easy enough. I'm hoping I get many years out of it. I really didn't want to get rid of my gas fridge.
