Shop or driveway?
Mobile techs are a good fit when the fridge won't cool and you're parked at a campground or storage lot. Three mobile outfits serve El Cajon, including San Diego Pacific Crest Services, which also handles A/C and awnings. A shop makes more sense for a cooling unit replacement or bench testing, since they have the tools and parts on hand. RV Trailer Supply stocks parts and has a strong review count. If you're not sure, ask on the phone whether the job can be done on site. Some diagnostics need a shop bay. If your rig is under warranty, get pre-approval before anyone touches the fridge. Four shops here do warranty work, but the paperwork still takes time.
What usually goes wrong
RV refrigerators fail in a few common ways. The cooling unit can leak, the control board can quit, or the burner and flue get clogged on gas models. Sometimes it's just a thermistor. A shop will check the simple stuff first, but you should describe the symptoms clearly: does it work on shore power but not propane, or not at all? That saves diagnostic time. In El Cajon heat, ventilation matters. Make sure the roof vent and side wall vents aren't blocked. If you've been parked in the sun, the fridge works harder. A tech can tell you if airflow is the problem.
Booking and parts
Spring and early summer fill up fast. Call ahead even if the shop takes walk-ins. Ask two questions: do you have the part, and what's the wait for a bay? Some fridges need a specific cooling unit that isn't on the shelf, so ordering takes days. The top-rated shop here is Collision Masters Auto Body Shop at 4.9, and San Diego RV Center sits at 4.7 with a larger review count. Both handle fridge work. La Mesa RecVan also does fridge repair and stocks parts, which can speed things up. If you're mobile, All Season's Mobile RV Services does warranty work.

Will a shop handle my fridge warranty claim?
