    I've got a norcold 2118 every day I have water standing under the 3 drawers in the bottom , my drain tube is dry, and I've ran a pipe cleaner up It and is not clogged that I can tell it has a bug plug in the end of it. Any ideas you could give me that I haven't tried would help thanks

      If there is water inside the refer, the only place it can come from is the condensation off the fins at the top rear of the fridge compartment. I would look at the catch tray located under the fins and make sure it’s slid back all the way and that the drain line is hooked up and clear. You can unhook it from the tray and blow through it. The tray could be cracked?? Or not setting flush against the back of the refer, which would allow the condensation to drip down the back wall of the refer. Hopefully this helps.

      But I did a dollar bill check and the r/h door is not sealing completely but can't find an adjustment on the latch.

      Not sure what a dollar bill check is? But as long as the center flap on the LH door is rotating all the way around to flush and that all the seals are touching, it shouldn’t be a problem. There is not and adjustment in the latch. As long as your temps are staying below 40 degrees you should be good

      @@RV-GUYS dollar bill check, lay in the door over the seal shut the door and normally their's resistance if seal is tight if you can slide bill side to side with ease there's not a tight seal, my fridge makes a cup of condensation in 8 to 12 hrs so with the bill test I could tell air is getting in, but you figured out why it wasn't get outside lol so I'm 1/2 way there lol

    I see no mention of the climate control switch located in the upper right panel on my Domestic Refrigerator.

      The switch is in the freezer.
      Should it be on or off , and why?

      Great question. This switch controls a 12v heater that runs around the edge of the door to reduce moisture build up on the seals of the door. It’s really only useful in high humidity environments. It can drain batteries quickly if the unit is not plugged into power. I would always leave it off.

      Thank so much!
      I'm a permanent resident in my 2001 Coachman 5th wheel , use shore power only for everything , so that switch will certainly be off , as it unnecessary.
      Thing is , I searched everywhere for that info and have never seen it mentioned , even in all the original paperwork ..
      Following your advice , I did add dual fans to my roof vent , and although I've never had a problem with my reefer , the fans made a bigger difference than I expected.
      Thank again .
