So when dry camping to save my weak batteries I placed a piece of tape over the door connections, which was fine until I forgot about the tape. Later when cleaning the fridge I discoverd excessive moisture and small amounts of mold in the crevices of the door seal. Tape was removed and moisture problem was fixed!!! Memory problem still exists.

Roadking,
Thanks for the new insight. Over in the Excel Owners Forum Rockintom is pretty much the authoritative voice on all matters large and small (Just ask him). So, if by chance you catch him on this one and maybe one or two more, the guys may dub you SKIA II.
Where can I find the "door connections"? I've looked at both the freezer and the refrigerator doors and can't find anything that looks like an electrical contact.
(Maybe SKIA knows.
)
