We have the RMD 8555 pile of junk. I am really at the end and seriously thinking about scrapping this pile of rubbish and replacing the whole fridge (2013)
This weekend we were off down to Van bitz to have an inverter fitted
Preparing for the journey – Fridge connected via electric, Drive not level – but within two days fridge down to zero 0c.
Sunday 9th – weather OK but not overly warm really - Packed the fridge with pre -cooled items and some frozen goods – Drove 87 miles ( 2Hrs) fridge reading 13 degrees C when we get there
Levelled the van (E&P Jacks) fridge on Electric – 3 hrs later fridge still 13 degrees – put fridge onto gas – 3 hours later down to 7 degrees
So basically, my Fridge is Useless on either gas or battery when travelling. I do have fridge vent fans and must confess that when we are in Europe I always use gas for running the fridge as using electric would give me food poisoning.
Questions please
Thanks for your assistance

Questions please
- Would it help if I changed the 240 volt element
- Would it help if I changed the 12 volt element
- If I am changing one, might as well change the other while accessing the rear of fridge
- What temperature cut in / out should the fridge vent fans be set to
- Any other thoughts?
