Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

My hallway is 19" (cabinet doors on) and the fridge is 19 deep (door and trim off), so no futz'n with the cabinet in the future hopefully. The box is narrower, so will have to add two approx 1 1/4"...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Picked up my fridge today. Can't plug it in for a day or so as it had to travel on its side. The difference in this fridge, however, is huge. Has a service port! Lots of usable space. Box has a...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Sounds like we need a study here. Fortuantely, my Norcold is not a viable candidate for this scientific endevour. Jage, your fridge comes out easy. Test it for the team! Pull it, put a cool six...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Seems like that might have been the smaller model they were talking about. I'm no refrigeration engineer, but I just can't see it with the 0041, but perhaps underneath as the lower foam seems to be...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

I'd be very suprised if bubble wrap would noticiably help improve the fridge's insulating properties. In fact, I wonder if the huge amount of insulation on this Norcold has reached and passed the...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Suprisingly little metal in this unit. Other than on the front edge, there are just a few brackets encased in the foam here and there where needed to support screwed-in components (i.e., the...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

I could have accessed the "L" bolt nut by removing the MDF face that houses the rear AC vent that is below the fridge...if I cared. Instead, I decided that this Norcold will never again allow the...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Measured the potential gain by removing the door and anything I could, as well as removing the opposing cabinet doors. Just not enough room. I can access the screws for the upper angle brckets...

Son of a congressional member!

Fridge must have gone in before the starboard side cabinets. Even if I remove the opposing door...

Vitrifrigo USA is located in Fla. They ship to distributors from there.

DO NOT used AA Mabru Inc. out of Fla (Ebay seller AKA: marinerefrigerators, AKA: themarinestore). He tried to squeeze...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Sure Marine in Seattle has one on display. I was going to buy it (over the phone) but for some reason, I could not get the sales person to verify the actual model number. The price was too low...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

This was ever so nearly touched on in a prior refrigerator thread in '07, but not touched on enough to prosecute. Scatter brings up a good argument. I like (I guess "liked" would me more...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

I tried to read the schematics for the DE-0041, but my eyes glazed over. Didn't have a key handy. Once I pull the unit, I'll plug it in and check voltage with a guage. Can't find any info out...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Will do.

Electronic Engineers, please advise: My Norcold DE-0041 is an AC/DC model. I have yet to pull it. The electronics are all operating just fine. I can buy a Vitrifrigo DC model for much...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Spent a little time researching and calling around today. As I may have mentioned, Dometic bought Tundra. Now it seems (according to one source) that Dometic removed the service ports on the former...

Re: Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Well, its getting to be that time of year and I still need to address this fridge issue. I have only learned that those that have tried to recharge these little fridges have had marginal luck (4...

Norcold is Nevercold -Refrigerator Threadfest

Hey All:

I have the 4.1 CU Norcold fridge in my '03. Its the second one. Like Scatter, mine started cycling off and on non stop. After I while, I thought I'd better shut it down and start it up...
