Just my opinion but I fully agree with repairing your Norcold 3-way. I have one in my GMC that is at LEAST 20 years old and the only problem is the micro switch between doors. The frige sweats and the switch gets wet and corrodes. I need to find a replacement but it all still works like new.

I had the NORCOLD out a couple years ago and the tubes/coil had some surface rust on them. I coated them with POR 15 which is supposed to stop rust actions by blocking the air, which stops the chemical corrosion action. STILL RUNNING and no leaks.

I think there is a REFRIGE repair place in Indiana, not sure if I still have the address but it would have cost about the same but you take the frige to them, they do all the work for the repair.

Knock on wood but I have had a great deal of luck with the NORCOLD and like it a lot. To try to lessen some of the refers cooling actions, I keep a couple of bottles of water, filled 3/4 in the freeZer. it helps keep things frozen and helps keep the refer cool when traveling. I've actually shut off the frig with the bottles in the freeZer while traveling and it stayed pretty cold.

good luck
