RichEither from age or heat, where I park my coach that side is maybe 3 feet from the south side of a steel building. I think this stuff was added last Jan at FOT for the Dometic fridge recalls.

Re: Dometic Fridge Reply #29 – October 22, 2018, 08:57:45 pm I have a newer coach now, with a Norcold, but now I remember that I had the Dometic (RM3662) recall fix done on my old coach. Camping World installed it for free. Quote Selected 1 Likes

Re: Dometic Fridge Reply #31 – October 23, 2018, 11:34:34 am That is your high limit "cut out" now you should monitor it closely to see why it tripped in the first place. Possibly out of level for a while? You may want to consider the ARP protection device to auto shut down the fridge if boiler temps get too high. It will reset itself when temps return to a safeLevel.
