Wood Fell Off Of My Fridge!!!

I went to check on the camper the other day, and as I was closing her up, the wood fascia board that matches the cabinents fell off. I didn't have much time to see if it was an easy fix or not, but I did notice that there was either a clear silicone gel, or a clear adhesive on the back of the board. Any ideas on how to get that thing back up so it'll stay??

Not a clue in this point and time. My freezer door panel is loose and moves up and down about an inch but has not fallen off yet. I hope someone has an answer ???????

A funny story - when this happened my 3 yr old was standing right next to me. The way the board hit the floor it sounded like a firecracker going off in the camper. Needless to say, it scared me. Any idea where this is going...???

I (without thought) let out a four letter explative starting with S and ending with T.

For the remainder of the day I tried to convice him to stop saying THAT word before we got home to Mom!!

I may go that route, providing I find myself pulling by the dealer for another reason. As expensive as gas is, it may be cheaper to fix it myself!!

Ok, I just spoke to my Dealer about the panel, he said if you remove the open edge to the door you can access the studs that hold the panel in place. He all so said that the studs are plastic and there is no adjustment for them they are manufactured to slide in place. Once the panel is installed it should be a tight fit, if the panel became loose then that is a sign that the plastic studs are starting to break, I think yours broke !!!!!! You may have to order a new panel.

Hmmm? Take the door off, take the door to dealer and have them fix it while you wait. And drive over there in whatever gets the best milage.

Just a thot...
