Ventilation, Leaker or Blockage? Three Quick Tests

Hi Darren. I hope you are doing well. Been crazy here.

Excellent video
Thanks

👍👍

Get a Residential Refrigerator that's Self Defrosting and more Reliable especially if your Full time....:) It's Cheaper and more Efficient.... Propane appliances these days are old Technology with the introduction of Stand alone Power Stations.:) RV Appliances don't last and are extremely Expensive to replace every 5 yrs maybe.... 👀

Hello again from South Texas Darren great video. Do you suggest if cooling coils are rusted out to remove rust and repaint them?

Could I have a blockage if it works on propane but not on electric?

I have a Norcold 811. That stopped working when we went away for a weekend and I turn off the power supply. When we came back it was not cooling the refrigerator or freezer. I detach the thermostat and nothing changed. Any ideas?

Love this guy!

I just bought a 98 Sportsmaster, the freezer works perfect but the fridge portion doesn't cool. Any tips? I'm new to the RV life and learning as I go.

Great video. I'm having issues with my Norcold 663 in a 1995 Callista. This was very helpful!

Mine isn’t cooling well and incapable of freezing. 48 is the best I can get right now. Based on what’s in this video I’m betting it’s a blockage but I’ll look into more later. I haven’t seen or smelt anything and the airflow is set up correctly.

Just curious but on a dometic rm2351 any idea what it should cost to replace the cooling portion or the whole unit?

Hi Darren, I have a relatively new 12v fridge ( jan '24...dometic dmc4101). Came back from vacation about a week ago freezer fine, fridge about between 60 and 70 degrees! Other than warranty work would you have any ideas?

Thanks David

My RV wasnt leveled. On driveway. Had to bring it down for it to work.

Darren, thanks for the video it was very helpful. Helping a friend with a suburban fridge, 1201. The freezer is 15deg and the fridge is 40 degrees , down from 50 degrees after improving the chimney. Thought the thermistor measured low in ohms so replaced. My question is " is it reasonable to expect 34 degrees in triple digit heat? Or what is optimum performance for this unit? Thanks John Stockamp, Patron.

Great info but I’m diagnosing a different issue. Freezer cold fridge not so. And the boiler and absorber are the same temperature. But after a little bit they are both cool like it turned off

my boiler is hot and the absorber is cold plus yellow sodium chromate under the boiler, does it mean leak and blockage at same time?

You are amazing. I learn so much for you. Thank you for your videos.

I assume that’s after the thermister is ruled out ?
