Hello,

I have a Dometic 182...and nothing seems to work (LP, 120V, DC)

So I pulled it to perform the recommended maintenance.
I had it 24 hours upside down, as suggested. When I flipped it right-side up, I could hear liquid falling within the fridge.

What does this mean?

Also, the electronic rod that runs through a tube within the insulated flashing...I suspect that is the thermocouple...how do you check this?

I really hope this works! The piezo starter and air pump function; the jet is clear. The original fan motor had seized, so I replaced it with a Radio shack version. If the fridge works, I'll invest in the biscuit fans, but until then...
