Norcold refrigerator FINALLY fixed

We are still under warranty. We have taken our Montana in twice to have our Norcold double door refrigerator fixed to no avail. The problem WAS we would shut the doors on the refrigerator and in a few minutes they would start beeping. We would then have to shove on the doors. Sometimes it worked, and sometimes a few minutes later they would start beeping again. Every time we would arrive at a new destination the doors would be beeping. We asked Lenn Malm, owner of Oak Park RV to look at it under warranty. He is next door to Phoenix RV Park in Salem. He walked over and after examining the doors said he thought he knew what the problem was. He came back the next day with plastic washers he had made with a slit on one side. He lifted each door and slid the washers onto the pin that holds the doors (he wanted to avoid taking the doors off). Voila, they work perfectly now. We just shut the doors and they snap shut. He said it was so easy -- NO CHARGE.

No we weren't having a problem like that. It was just the darn continuous beeping. And, of course that meant that if we were away and it was left beeping it would eventually shut off. We were constantly shouting to each other, "push on the fridge door." It is wonderful not to have that problem anymore.
