Rv refrigerator worked fine. Received recall notice from dometic for voluntary recall due to lp gas problem. Took rv to general rv dealership for installation of "dometic sbh kit". After installation, refrigerator does not work properly, it will cool, but then stop working. This has happened 3 times while using since the repair and the dealer who installed the kit claims it is not related to the installation. Are there other problems with refrigerators working fine before the installation, and failing to work after installation? Help!

Equipment: recreational vehicle/trailer
- What is wrong
- Certain fifth wheel and travel trailers equipped with a two-door refrigerator, manufactured by the dometic corporation, may have a defect in certain tubing in the refrigerator which could allow pressurized flammable coolant solution to be released into an area where an ignition source (gas flame) is present.
- Risk
- This could result in a fire.
- Remedy
- Keystone rv will be working with dometic in order to repair these refrigerators (please see 06e076).
