Chris,
Thanks for the information. I quickly read and looked
over the diagram on your excellent troubleshooting page. That is the first
time I have ever run across an explanation of ammonia absorption cooling that
was understandable and didn't overwhelm me with details before I grasped the
concept. I will read it several more times and think about the process as
I read until I thoroughly understand and remember.
I notice that your guide says that since the early '80s
burping a refrig was less likely to help anything. I'm going to try
supplying 110 vac and 12 vdc tomorrow just to make sure but I'm planning on a
visit to Camping World next week.
I also noticed that your guide mentioned good airflow and
clean coils. My coils had a good buildup of West Texas farm dirt
built up on the coils. I blew them clean with compressed air and an old
paint brush. There was probably not enough build up to restrict
cooling but do you think that could have prevented proper
cooling?
Regards,
Harvey
