What goes wrong with RV fridges
Most RV refrigerators are absorption units, and they're fussy about level ground and airflow. A unit that cools fine on shore power but not on propane usually points to the burner or the flue. One that quits entirely may have lost its cooling unit, which is a real repair bill. Before you book, note whether it fails on both power sources or just one, and whether the freezer still works. That detail saves the tech diagnostic time and saves you money. If you're heading out soon, call ahead and ask whether the replacement cooling unit or board is in stock. Some parts take days to order.
Two shops and one mobile tech
Howells Diesel Road Service carries a 4.9 rating across 116 reviews and does mobile work, so they can come to your site. They also handle A/C and awnings, which helps if more than one thing is broken. Clarksville Truck and Trailer sits at 4.7 from 182 reviews, keeps parts on hand, and does warranty work. That warranty point matters if your fridge is still under an extended plan, since most plans want pre-approval before the repair starts. Call the plan first, get the approval number, then book. With only two local shops, spring and early summer fill up fast, so don't wait until the morning you leave.
Mobile tech or shop visit
A mobile tech makes sense when the rig is set up at a campground and you'd rather not break camp for a fridge that might just need a cleaning. Howells is the local mobile option here. A shop visit makes more sense for a cooling unit swap or anything that needs the fridge pulled out, since that work wants a bay and parts on the shelf. Clarksville Truck and Trailer has both. Either way, empty the fridge before the appointment if you can. Nobody enjoys moving a week of groceries into a cooler in the parking lot.

Questions people ask
How many RV refrigerator repair options are in Clarksville?
There are 2 shops in Clarksville that handle RV refrigerator repair, plus 7 more nearby. The local pair averages 4.8 across their reviews, and one of them, Howells Diesel Road Service, is a mobile tech that can come to your site.
Do any Clarksville shops do warranty work on RV fridges?
Yes, one of the two local shops does warranty work. Clarksville Truck and Trailer lists warranty among its features. Get pre-approval from your warranty provider before the repair begins, since most plans require it and won't pay after the fact.
My fridge works on electric but not propane. What should I tell the tech?
Say exactly that. It narrows the problem to the propane side, usually the burner, orifice or flue, rather than the cooling unit. Mention whether the freezer still gets cold and how long it takes to fail. That kind of detail helps the shop decide what parts to have ready.
Can a mobile tech fix my RV fridge at the campground?
Often yes. Howells Diesel Road Service is mobile and handles fridge work along with A/C and awnings. Simple fixes like cleaning the burner or checking connections travel well. A cooling unit replacement usually needs a shop bay, so ask when you call and they'll tell you which applies.
