If the refrigerator is running and making a gurgling sound or you notice that there is yellow residue behind the refrigerator, an ammonia smell, or if the cooling solution in the cooling unit has leaked out (often accompanied by a loss of cooling) the refrigerator cooling unit needs to be replaced. The first thing to do is shut off the refrigerator and disconnect the 120VAC power, the 12VDC from the battery bank or from the refrigerator fuse and then remove both lines of power from the cooling unit. Once the refrigerator is unplugged, one person gives a good shove from the back of the refrigerator and pulls on the front, slowly moving it out of the cabinet.
