Title: Fridge Lock
Post by: ScubaGuy on May 11, 2013, 12:07:25 am
I'm hoping to replace the fridge/freezer door lock, but I can't seem to find this part.  I removed what's left of the lock and it has the number 293 27 46 on it, but searching that number hasn't gotten me anywhere.  Attached is a picture of what's left of it, the part that says "Lock/Unlock" which is the part that is normally visible is missing. 

Any guidance is appreciated.

Have you called Dometic Parts?  If you don't have the number, call FT Parts on Monday.  They might even have it.  I'd look up the number for you, but I'm in England touring Stonehenge right now.

Calling Dometic or going to their website and checking the model number of the fridge may give you a parts list with an exploded diagram. It may also be as easy as visiting an RV store (Camping World) who may even have them on a shelf. I had to replace some door handle parts and got lucky that way at a Camping World!

Our coach door lock was fine when we bought it, and broken when we took delivery.  I will too be chasing parts, thanks for the ideas.

This might help.  Give them a call.

It's on page 11, Item #15

The Fridge is a Dometic RM 7832. 

I tried Dometic's website but couldn't find anything like Keith posted (Thanks Keith).

If anyone has a Schematic of the RM7832, I would love to have a copy.


As it turns out I need a few more fridge parts than just the lock, so I'm guessing FOT will be my starting point.
