Hi have read a bit on the
forum regarding fridge problems. Some advice on the problem I am having from the
Forum Members would be great.
It is a Dometic Sweden 3 way fridge installed in a pop top caravan. The fridge would probably be around 20 years old at least. Tried it for the first time (since I bought the van) on 240v and after a couple of hours the freezer was cold but the fridge compartment didn't cool down at all. A number of Members have advised others to take the fridge out and turn it upside down/on its sides over a period of a few days. Before I try this, just wanted to
check to see if this is what I should be doing or whether I should see a fridge mechanic. I would say that the van has been sitting idle for anywhere uin the viciniity of 5+ years judging by the cobwebs in/around and under the van.
