Have you been able to repair or locate the problem?

The Norcold repair guy gave me one of those cheap circular bubble levels and said if the bubble was more than half out of the circle, the fridge was not level enough. I have often verified the reverse - if the bubble is half inside the circle, the fridge works.

cleaned the ports on the thing and ran it last weekend in 90 plus heat. took about 4 hours to go from 90 to 55. not bad at all. by the next morning it was down to mid 40's. I am happy with that given the low was probably 55 or 60 that night. thanks for the help guys. I will be sure to keep the thing clean in there.

also my first outing with the solar panels I have hooked up. parked the camper in the sun for the day while we played in a river while jaming to music plugged into the camper. battery stayed fully charge for 5-6 hours of tunes playing. works GREAT! only a trickle charge of 10watts, but apperently that is all it needed. the speakers were some 120V computer speakers plugged into a small invertor.

Used compressed air and blew out my friends unit and they have had no problems. Glad you found a cure......
