Prepping for our latest camping trip I tried to turn on Dometic RML8555 refrigerator to get it cold for the trip and it would not come on in any mode. The red LED flashes along with the particular mode - 12v, 120v, gas, auto - also get beeping with the flashing. Figure no big deal just take it to the local RV shop and get it fixed, right?
Wrong.
My regular RV shop (didn't buy my M21 there) fiddle with it all day. They say it's a German refrigerator and that the only service manual they can find is in German. They tried to force the unit to reset by disconnecting from power but no luck. They finally called Dometic and were told that the refrigerator is German refrigerator and that they couldn't help them. Of course, my local shop said they'd be willing to put a new unit in it's place for $2000 plus installation!
I find it hard to believe that Heartland would have put these in their units and have no way to service them. Has anybody else run into issues with their RML8555 and been able to get it fixed?
