djpauls Report post Posted February 19, 2012 I just viewed another video of a motorhome fire that originated in the refrigerator area. My refer is 12 years old and with the exception of replacing some electronics 6 years ago (circuit boards and wiring looms) my Norcold has performed very well. Recalls have been performed. I am planning a 10 week Alaska tour this summer and then will likely update to a newer motorhome. Should I be concerned? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jc21014 Report post Posted February 19, 2012 There have been many posts on various forums concerning the reliability of some 1200 series Norcold fridges. Some have replaced their units with those rebuilt by this company run by David Force, (I understand he can be reached at the phone # on the website and is very helpful) at substantially less cost then a new Norcold. Others have replaced there unit with a residential unit but consideration on your battery bank size is needed. http://www.rvcoolingunit.net/servlet/StoreFront Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
