I may have to pull the fridge out to get access to the back for a repair person. Anyone know how it's held in?

I "believe" the only thing holding our fridge in place are a couple of wood screws at the base of the fridge, near the wheels/rollers. When I repaired our "sagging" fridge a couple of years ago that looked like the only thing to me BUT I could be wrong. :rolleyes:

There are also 2 screws into a block of wood at the top, removed from the bottom of the upper cabinet

Thank you both! I found both locations. Where does the block go after removing the two screws. It looks like it just lies there against the top of the fridge? Walt

How did you line it up to re-install screws?

I measured were it had to go and held it in place with2 sided tape to the top of the fridge. Ended up with new holes in the block of wood

I found the problem. The shut off valve at the water manifold was plugged up. Moved the handle back and forth 6 times and all of a sudden the water ran to the fridge. Strange, as I have 3 water filters outside and one that the trailer came with. All have been changed 2 times since I got the trailer.

NOT calling you a liar!!! Mine "appears" to just set there also but I guarantee there is some type of attachment.

Do you ever use the pump and fresh water tank? There is small filter on the input of the pump that catches most the trash found the lines and tank. But some trash did make it into my pump thus some trash may have passed on.

Check the pump filter and I would flush the water manifolds by opening the valve on the bottom.
Glad you didn't have move the refrigerator.

Yes, we do use the pump and fresh water tank when we stop at a rest stop. I drain and flush the fresh water tank and drain the manifold after each trip. About once a month except for being in Yuma for 5 months. I'll check the pump filter as you suggested. Thank you.

I might be wrong it has been a few months since I moved our fridge, memory is not the best, but noting held that piece of wood to the fridge only to the cabinet.

After thinking about it it would NOT surprise me if the Frig did just set there as they are known to forget things!

Odd that it did not creep out on you?

It did �� that is why I had it apart but I also need to take it back out and re secure it this spring.
