    Thank you for this video. Iam a technician helping a friend with his refridgerator and this video answered everything. He is running on A/c only with no batteries and his fridge keeps cutting out, but when I hit the water pump or the slide out it will kick the fridge back on. Well you just made me realize why.. His converter is bad and Im guessing that its over charging hitting the slide out is pulling such a load that its dropping it down enough to alow it back on.. Im pretty sure the diodes are bad in the converter because I was picking up quite a bit A/C voltage at the dc leads and fuses. Thank you very much!!

    Thanks for the info on Arctic Mode... news to me how I could cool things down quickly. When I start my fridge I add a few half gallon milk cartons of ice to help it along. My Dometic is in a 2016 Leprechaun and does not have the buttons that tell the boiler how long to stay on, maybe they "moved on" from those buttons. I have a button to select electric, one for LP and one for Auto. Very simplified. Thanks for your videos. I choose to have technicians do the work when I need it but I like understanding the problems and the process. ✌☮

    My 2016 Pleasure Way XLTD has a Dometic RML 8330 that wasn't getting very cold. After watching your other videos I found the burner too rusted to clean (even a soft bottle brush broke the burner tube slots!) and so I have a replacement coming. In the meantime I watched your videos on how these things work, climbed up on a ladder and checked behind the top vent cover. Happy to say PW isn't nearly as bad as your examples! The back could be closer but at least is sealed and angled for less turbulence. Air rising up the front however mostly bypasses the cooling fins and goes right out the vent. I have the sheet metal and other materials, so tomorrow I will fashion a really nice duct to get all that air flowing smoothly across the condenser heat sink fins. Thanks!

      Hey, glad you like it! That's something I've been building on since the 90s. It started out its life as a Taylor-Dunn Stockchaser. I got out of a scrap pile where it was used as a donor vehicle. I started welding on it and modifying it to what it is today. These days it's got a variable frequency speed control on it, inverter, and obviously a lot of tool boxes. I'm running all of the control I/O through a PLC. You'll see it in several more of my other videos. If there's enough interest, I can do a video just on what I did to it. In my previous career as a commissioning and testing engineer, it was awesome to be able to drive it all over facilities to get to the different pieces of equipment I was working on.

At times, randomly and unexpectedly each and eventually all lights on display light on eyebrow. The cycling sometimes occurs for as much as 20 minutes several times a day before the finally settle on “automatic “ and “ac”! times run. Never know when the cycling will occur!!!

My StarCraft pop up has flaps that Velcro’s around the lift arms to deflect any water away.
