Noisy Dometic Refrigerator Fans
Prior to our current 5TH wheel RV we had a Dometic refrigerator in that unit and it exceeded our expectations. Everything in the refrigerator was cool or cold and the temperature remained in the 33-34...

My Dometic (not in a slide) has a fan located out of reach, high in the cooling tubes, that runs for a minute every couple minutes. The fan blows directly on the thermostatic switch, causing short runs. It sounds like it is solidly mounted to the cooling tubes, which make a great resonator - drives me nuts! Some day I will pull the fridge, rubber mount the fan, and move the thermostatic switch out of the airflow. Meanwhile I installed 2, near silent, 12v computer fans hanging on shock cord, pointed up the stack. It helps. Check CFM and DB ratings - all fans are not created equal.
