Refrigerator quit
My coach has a Dometic NDR-1292 refrigerator / freezer unit. It has been
running perfectly since the end of Feb when I installed a new thermocouple in it until last Thursday when it abruptly quit. It cycles between gas and electric with no problem both produce heat. There are no signs of ammonia leak, no loud gurgles to indicate a blockage. All the fuses are good. The resistance on the temperature sensor tell me that it is closed calling for cooling. I am stumped! Steve Quandt 1993 PT-40 Iron Mountain, MI |

Before reinstalling the unit plug it In and check to see if the unit is now working. Do not forget you will need 12 volt control powerIn order for the controls to work.
