Thanks for all the feedback; much appreciated. To answer the questions raised 1) the unit hasn’t been running off level 2) I believe it is the original refrigerator and the rv is a 1994 model Fleetwood Southwind 3) shutdown occurs running electrical or propane 4) when the unit first stops running, the “check” light on the indicator lights near the top of the unit inside goes on - then awhile later the lights dim and the noise starts up. I know the unit isn’t working first when the “check” light goes on, then hearing the noise. The noise is definitely coming from the lower circuit board in the outside compartment. Thanks again for your time.
1994 model---That helps. Take the black cover off the rear control module. IF the epoxy where the circuits are mounted is yelloe/Beige, the ONLY fix is to replace the control module and install a ground loop kit. Dometic has those 2 parts. IF the epoxy is greenish, then the original control module has been replaced and more diag needed. But, even a newer control module may be bad. The original Dometic Control modules from the early 90's to about 1998 had intermittant failure problems with the check light being the indicator. Made no difference if on 120 or LP gas. Doug
