Re: [A/S] Dometic Fridge Repair?



A few excepts from the rv newsgroup website......

 If you're getting an ammonia smell, you need to get the unit out of
there ASAP.  Ammonia is highly toxic...  yes, the unit does need replacing.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Get a good ice chest and start eating the frozen food.  Once you smell
ammonia, the problem usually rapidly worstens and collapse of the reefer is
soon to follow usually.  I doubt the fridge will hold very long.  You should
be ready to use alternative means of food storage until you can get the core
or the unit replaced.

The following is a quality rebuilder, with a replacement unit for almost
every refrigerator made, and with one of the best warranties in the rebuild
business.  They have a 1 year warranty as standard with 2 way freight and $80
labor if unit fails in 1st 30 days (which will be the case with most
failures), an an extended warranty for an extra fee.
