Again my apologies for not posting the model

Again thanks to all who responded..

RV Guide specs shows

Refridgerator-----Full Size----Electric/Propane
That was WHY I asked about posting Brand/Model
Which would have been easier then posting a picture of label

What would have been easier would be to look where you were posting to and see that it was an Entegra specific forum and not a general motorhome forum. I could see the need for posting a make and model if posting in the latter forum but not the former. Chastising the original poster like that was not constructive or helpful at all.

By the way I would find a better resource for looking up RV specs, that one is so full of errors that it is totally unreliable.

We are all getting a tad testy due to the C-19.
Understandably so.
Also when we have an issue one tends to overlook the obvious at times. At least I do.

Glad you got it going again.

About 18 months ago our Samsung fridge started acting up. We'd wake up or return home to find temps in the 50's and soft ice cream in the freezer. A check of the temps on the information screen showed -8 and 38 degrees. That led me to believe the electronics weren't telling the fridge it needed to cool things down. I could unplug it from power, and restart it and it would cool down quickly and work appropriately for a few weeks before stopping again. This continued over and over with the intervals between stops getting shorter until it was happening every few days.

I called a national appliance repair shop and made an appointment. The repair tech called the day of the appointment to confirm our location. As we discussed the issue he was pretty certain he knew what the issue was...a bad primary PC board.

We were located over an hour's drive away so he asked if I was 'handy' and interested in repairing it myself. I said yes. So he gave me the part number and told me it was available on Amazon (for less than he would have to charge), then he cancelled the service call.

I ordered the card (determined it was the wrong card upon receipt) and eventually identified the correct card with the help of Samsung's parts department (Samsung's tech support was useless).

Installed the new card and everything has worked flawlessly now for over a year. Saved at least $300 because of no diagnostic and repair visits. I would normally call and compliment the repair tech (ThanksTim!), but the company might not want to know how much he helped me.

As far as accessing the fridge...used a furniture dolly to lift the front edge while my wife and I 'walked' it out the tight confines where it is located in our 14 Anthem 42DEQ.

Do you have the part information? A Samsung repair tech came out and replaced the compressor but freezer still isn't working. He had a board with him but felt it was a compressor issue and didn't replace the board. The repair company isnt returning our calls for some reason. Thank you.
