Norcold N811 Frig access

I'm thinking about installing an ARP control unit on our Norcold N811 frig in our 2007 30RSO. The frig sits sideways to the exterior wall. So there is limited access from the exterior panel. There is additional access behind the toilet.

Two questions; can anyone provide insight into best approach to access the boiler tube to place the ARP sensor? Also a while back I was trying move the entire frig out of its position some to clean in the back. Got all of the front screws and the one screw in the bottom just inside of the exterior access panel. But I could not get the frig to budge out of its position. It sits on some kind foil/insulation board and seems like its settled into that layer. So how does one get this frig to move? Did Excel use a blind screw on the far bottom side that has to be removed? Any ideas.

Fred, I seen and know what you are talking about but can't help you with your question as I have no real experience with it. I know there are a bunch of folks out there with your model of rig. Hopefully you can get some useful info from them. I thought that refer placement was goofy. Serviceability ZERO. Ralph at the Service Center should shed some lite on this too. Please let us know how this comes out.

Thanks Tom, I see you sold Charm. I guess all things must change and end sometime. We're off to Alaska for five months.
