Refrigerator Woes

I've done as much diagnosis as I can on my 5 year old Dometic refer. I have decided it needs a new cooling unit. Has anybody replaced one? New or rebuilt? Any particular manufacturer or supplier you like? Any positive or negative comments would be appreciated.

You might luck out and find someone that repairs them. I lucked out several years ago and found a repair shop. Heck of a lot cheaper than buying a new one. Later RJD

You can also replace the cooling unit and not try to repair for $655Amish cooling unit.
Amish cooling unit. Better than original.

Are you going to Goshen FROG rally next month?
In Elkhart you may be able to pickup one up at the rally cheap. Dometic will be there as a vendor

Wish I could make the rally but I'm stuck in Denver then. I looked at the Amish units and they sound good.

RJD - Where was the repair shop and how did you find it?
