Removing Norcold refrigerator

[Hfg59]

I'm trying to remove the fridge in my 98 dynasty to replace fan. Its a 4 door norcold. I found three screws on bottom in the outside access door, but have not located any inside coach that might be holding it in. There are 4 screws in back wall on inside of both sides of freezer but didn't want to remove them not knowing what they might be holding. I know several have taken these out just wondered if anyone could give me a few pointers. here is the pics of the screw inside freezer. thanks

The screws holding the fridge in, are on the top and the bottom lips. You need to take the trim off and you will find the screws there. I think there is three on the top and the same on the bottom. I had to remove the doors to get at them.
Don't touch the screws inside the fridge. There are screws on the outside of the
fridge on the bottom plate. While you have the fridge out put in a baffle in below the the condenser. I made mine out of a aluminum sheet. I made mine
so it went 1/2 an inch in under the condenser and just below it. I also made another for the lower part at the top of the access door. My fridge never warms
up on the hottest day.

Thanks I will give it a try.

Depending on your specific coach & frig model, there may also be a few screws in the rear bottom-lip of the frig that are viewed and accessed by removing the outer access-door (where the gas-valve, wiring, etc, are located) and looking down. Or are those the ones that OG70 is talking about?
Mine were covered by some kind of sealant/goop, and it took forever to find them when I replaced my frig.

Yeah, don't remove the ones you photo'd, they hold the Earth's magnetic core in alignment with the GOP and Dem Parties.

(Just kidding... They're what mount the cooling assembly on the back to the inside walls of the frig. And probably more important, too!)

...and add a bit of info for Norcold NA10LX (and similar model) fridge owners trying to remove or pull out their fridge.

I searched for quite some time trying to find diagrams, pictures, or videos for my Norcold fridge so I could locate the screws that hold it in. Thanks to all of you who contributed to this post, I was able to fight my way through this.

Note to the Norcold NA10LX (and N10LX, N8 versions, and N7 versions maybe?): simply pull on the plastic shrouds/covers that run across the top and the bottom of the fridge and you will expose the four screws (two behind each cover) that secure the fridge from the front side. Those covers simply pull off but it takes some effort to get them off without cracking them so be careful! Then you've got a couple more screws at the bottom of the backside of the fridge and you're good to go!

One more note to everyone: you'd think I would've learned this lesson by now but I neglected to take pictures before pulling my fridge out. In my case, I only needed to pull it out far enough to get the baffle repositioned properly but in doing so, I managed to pull the DC wires off of their connectors on the control board. It took me a while to figure out which wires these were and where they connect so always take "before" pictures so you can revisit them when you need to put stuff back the way it was when you're done.

Anywho, mission accomplished! Baffles are fixed, now, so air will flow! Add to that a set of Fridge Defend fans and sensors and I hope we'll be good to go even when it hits 100 degrees later this week. (We couldn't keep the fridge under 60 if temps outside got over 90 with the baffle out of position and trapping the air inside.) So thanks, again, to all of you who contribute to these threads and help the rest of us find our way!

Any pictures of the baffles you added would be helpful

I took my 2 door 8cf fridge out last year, and what has been posted is true for us. All mounting screws are behind the trim all around the front and the bottom of the fridge in the back. We removed the doors as well before getting to the screws.
