A couple of years ago my Dometic refrigerator stopped working. Following
instructions that I read somewhere, I detached the fridge and set it face
down to remove the likely cause: an air pocket in the tubing. I think I
actually turned it upside down as well. Bottom line: it has worked like a
charm ever since.
