The Dometic Absorption Fridge (And the norcold) for the most part there are only 4 or 5 repairs I will list them
Dirty fins (Had that but not totaled) blow air DOWN from the top to clean if you can't get to 'em any other way.. NOTE External fans cause this (Per my Technician)
2: Burner maintenance... Described in many manuals including the one Dometic prints.
3: Electric heat element replacement.
4: Electronic issue (Control board, includes blown fuse and bad wiring)
5: OUCH: Cooling unit failure (JUST put in a new cooling unit) Have that done by a pro. Two reasons. one is warranty on the cooling unit (If you put it in yourself 100% they will say "Bad install") 2: Well I've assisted said pro and I still don't want to do it.
Fins good
Done the burner, boiler and stack maintenance
Element resistance checked and good and I am actually testing it by connecting directly to AC and it works. Does not work through board.
Fuses on board good and board is new.
