Doug, The RV is 30 miles away so I can't look at it now. Do you think it will be necessary to pull the fridge completely out in order to gain access to the heating element, or can it be done in place from the rear? I recall that it seemed difficult to split apart the big pipe that holds the element with the fridge installed. Thanks, Rick
In 10 years of working on RV's and doing quite a few fridges, I've never had to pull the fridge out to get the 110v heating unit out.
Be sure to blow the holder with some compressed air, or vacuum. But the point is to get as much foreign material out so the heat transfer is good.
