Hi,
Normally the gas on those is a mixture of Ammonia & water, If the smell is like ammonia would suggest a leak, possibly from earlier repairs.
Regards Mike.

First thought that comes to mind is something overheating in the 12v wiring.
Even if the cable is heavy enough, a bad connection can cause excessive heat.
