Fridge Problem

Another Dometic Fridge Problem

Year old fridge - has worked well until recently. I know it's still under warranty, but unlike a fridge in a house, the "repair guys" want me to bring the fridge to them. No one around here seems to do "mobile" stuff. Planning to take it in when we get on the road in a few weeks.

Seems to stop working in the fridge area first, then the freezer gets warmer. No change between electric and gas.

No ambiant weather switch - yes Ilooked everywhere, and Dometic confirms that.

Checked the 2 fans outside - don't seem to be turning

Solution: If I shut off the unit for about 15 minutes, then repower - it works! Seems to occur about every 4-5 days. I think we start the "process" of failure by having the door open to either load or unload fridge - i.e. 3 or 4 times within a short time span.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
