QUOTEI will check mine shortly but as an interim "roadside fix" in case of an unexpected failure can the diode be bypassed and the reefer run without it in the circuit. I would expect that I could lift the two wires from the device, connect them together and operate the reefer until a proper repair could be made (these kind of failures usually happen, in my experience, on a Saturday evening 200 miles from the closest RV shop)
Yes.....Dometic will have a fit if you tell them you are doing this.
Does anyone know an on-line source for these thermal fuses or diodes?
Thanks - and quite frankly - I really do not care if Dometic pitches a fit - they wont be to ones that have the failure on a dark and stormy Saturday evening 200 miles from civilization(and an RV Dealer)with a reefer full of perishables (and my beer)
