Subject:      who's knows those dometics? I got a 120 VAC problem.
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed

Hello, I've noticed about two months ago, on top of a plethora of other
major problems, my fridge doesn't work off of AC.  I usually run it on such
to get it "warmed up" for propane. (BTW, it works fine on propane, last
time, without a warm-up, it was "cooking" in less that 10 minutes.)

The old instruction manual that came with the van says the heater element is
bad if it doesn't work on 120 VAC.

MY question is:  anybody known this problem to be something else?  I didn't
find a fuse, save the circuit breaker, which is fine. I know there is juice
at the plug-in under the sink.
Bus Boys carries the heater element for a SPENDY $225.  THAT is a little
more than I want to spend.  Is this repairable?

I'd like to gather info before I pull the fridge from the wall, since that's
a chore!
Thanks
