I love surprises, gone for a week and come back to find the Dometic refrig. not cooling. Yep, bunch of yellow, ammonia smelling gunk in the back! Plus a bunch of evil-smelling whatever in the freezer. Got the coach airing out right now.
So what would you do: replace refrig with new one ($1500)?
Replace just the cooling unit for about 1/2 the price and hope the board is ok?
Or replace the fridge with a 120volt unit ($500)? Any idea how long 2-8d batteries would last? If it lasts overnight that might be the best option?
