Replace Refrigerator Cooling Unit – Wednesday, September 3, 2025

It is time to change the cooling unit on the back of the refrigerator. The coach is a 2004, I replaced the cooling unit in 2014 and now in 2025.

I built this structure so I can slide the refrigerator out of it’s hole and then lay it down on the front to take the cooling unit off the back.

After I got the two pieces in of the support deck in the coach I screwed the top onto the base.

This is the old unit that needs to be replaced.

Got the old unit off, cleaned up, a Thermal mastic spread where the cooling tubes will contact the internal refrigerator box metal fins.

With Brian’s help I got the old unit off and the new unit on the back of the refrigerator box. It was a stuggle to get the cooling unit onto the plastic refrigerator box. The box was a little wider then the new unit, may be that over time the plastic box has spread some, it is 21 years old.

These are the internal fans I put in the refrigerator to blow air across the fins. I did this a couple of years ago. Also, have a fan down lower to push the cold air up from the bottom of the refrigerator.

Palisades BLM Campground, Mt – Tuesday June 10, 2025

We are going to have some rain today.

We got rain from 6:00 to 6:15.

I went out for a walk today.

At one time this river was much bigger than it is now. I am way above the current river and all these round rock had to be formed by rolling in the river.

The rain is around us.

Just a river picture.

Walked up river and then walked back the road from the boat ramp.

These are some pictures I ripped off the internet of the moon last night above Mt Rainier.

Two pictures are the same, don’t see how to delete it while writing from my phone.

That’s it for today. Tomorrow is laundry day.
