Hey all, In preparation for the upcoming hot summer camping days I need to get the fridge in the westy working at peak efficiency... This weekend I will pull out the fridge, replace the noisy fan with something better/quieter, add a small fan inside the box, and add a thermometer to monitor box temperature. First question... The Bentley book makes it look pretty easy to remove the fridge. One gas line and a couple electrical things to disconnect, and remove a few screws and it slides right out... right? Any "gotchas" to look out for here that Bentley doesn't mention? (Bentley makes changing the hall sensor in the distributor look easy too, but I hear it's not) Second question... The temp switch for the fan... what temperature is it supposed to turn on at? I'd like to test it and/or replace it while the fridge is out. If I knew what temp it was, I'd just pick up a new one while I'm out tomorrow. Anyone know? Anything else I should do or look at while the fridge is out? Thanks, Steve |
