I think you may be right. When the owner of the failed RM3862 I posted about earlier first arrived with his fridge, he had copies of this exact thread in his hand. Not being an RV.net member, he had typed "ammonia leak" (or something similar) in Google and this thread was the first in the list.
Just a bit of an update on that particular repair...Dometic would NOT cover the cost of a new element despite the fact that it was way out of range resistance-wise. I find this odd since their whole premise was that these cooling units are failing (under the recall) because of metal fatigue due to too high a wattage element.
I'm not satisfied with their decision and will prod them for more of a clarification.
