Fridge repair usually means pulling the unit or getting at the back of it, which is shop work more often than not. Seven of the 23 listings are mobile techs, and they can be a good fit for a diagnosis, a burner cleaning or a board swap in your site. If the cooling unit itself is gone, plan on a shop. Ask on the phone which kind of job yours sounds like. A tech who says bring it in for anything is either honest or doesn't want the drive, and you can usually tell which.
The bigger names with reviews to read are Adventure RV Center and Capital RV Center, both 4.5 stars with hundreds of reviews, plus George's RV Services at 4.7 and Dakota Recreation Repair at 4.8. Riverwood RV & Auto sits at 4.5. For a smaller operation, Dakota Rv Repair LLC holds a 5.0 across 12 reviews. Capital advertises certified techs, warranty work and parts, which matters if your fridge is still under an appliance warranty. Seven of the 23 listings say they do warranty work, so confirm before you tow.
Check the simple stuff first. The fridge needs 12 volt power, a good ground and, on propane, a clean burner and flue. A lot of no-cool calls turn out to be a dirty burner or a thermistor. If you are under warranty, get pre-approval from the appliance maker before anyone touches it, or you may pay twice. Ask whether the part is in stock. Cooling units and control boards are not sitting on every shelf in the state, and a shop that has to order means a return trip. Spring and early summer book up, so call ahead.
There are 23 listings for RV refrigerator repair across the state, including 7 mobile techs. The average rating is 4.6 stars, so most of the choices have decent feedback behind them.
Maybe. Seven of the 23 listings are mobile. Mobile techs handle diagnosis, burner and flue cleaning, and some board work on site. A full cooling unit replacement usually needs a shop, so describe the problem when you call.
Seven of the 23 listings say they do warranty work, and Capital RV Center lists warranty among its features. Get pre-approval from your appliance warranty provider first, and confirm the shop will bill them directly before you drop the RV off.
Common causes are a dirty propane burner, a failed thermistor, weak 12 volt power or a bad control board. A cooling unit failure is also possible. A shop can test the unit and tell you which one you have before you spend money on parts.
