Discovery: Norcold access panel

[bearparkmn]

The exterior fridge access panel blew off of our excursion 40e and I cannot find a replacement at rv part stores or eBay or the Norcold site as it must be an older model . It has the plastic screws on the bottom of the vent rather than the top. Any suggestions?

Welcome to iRV2.

This is your first post I see.

How old is the RV ?
The solution could be to replace the frame and the vent; instead of just trying to find a vent to fit the frame .

Could you post the measurements and a picture?

EDIT: My vent has the retainers at the bottom too , so I'm interest in this issue.

This one looks like it should work. Looks exactly like the one I had in my 2004 Tradition.

Includes frame ; but I guess you don't have to use it.

Thanks Gary , for the link , I'll keep it handy in case I ever need one.

13 1/2 by 21 opening and 15 by 23 1/4 frame. I don’t know how to attach a pic but there are only 3 tabs on the top rather than 4 and the square plastic tabs are on the bottom. The fleetwood 40e is a 2007. Would this be a part that Norcold or Fleetwood would have in inventory. Thanks for your support.

Norcold would have provided a specification for the size of vent , and Fleetwood
would have sourced the part and may have inventory if they still use that size ... or at least provide the name of their supplier.
