On a recent trip to Florida we had problems with the fridge not lighting on
propane.  We called a Dometic dealer and he said to remove the screw in cap
at the bottom of the fridge and blast a few shots of compressed air through
and watch for what comes out the vent.  We did, and a lot of stuff came out
and now it lights well but still doesn't seem to cool down as much as it
used to.  When it's about 75 outside it's only cooling down to about 49 or
so although at night it will get down to about 28 when we have in plugged
in to AC.  Any suggestions on what we could check ourselves without
expensive servicing-we did pull it out last year and clean it throughly and
the fan is running.
