Re: [A/S] Dometic Fridge Problems

Before going for a new cooling unit, some easier possibilities.

Has the fridge worked will up to now? Have you given it 24 hours to get
down to temperature? Are you in a really hot place for the first time?

There should be a thermostat sensor clipped to the cooling vanes, make
sure it is unobstructed. Provide air circulation over the coils in the
back, fan blowing up. Get an internal battery fan to circulate inside
the fridge.

All of the above are good things to do if you are trying to cool where
it's very hot.

But if any of the symptoms David mentioned, ammonia smell, yellowy
powder, are present, it's time for a new cooling unit, alas.
