The Drip of a Drippy Dometic RM1350
It’s a starry night at the campsite, campfire crackling, and your Dometic RM1350 RV fridge—a 12-cubic-foot, gas-electric beast—should be keeping your food frosty. But when a water leak forms a puddle, that double-door cooler threatens to sog your supplies, turning your road trip into a damp mess. This camper staple—loved for its auto-switch and quiet hum—shouldn’t weep like a rainy tent. Clogged drain? Loose tray? Condensation overload? A leaky fridge isn’t just a hassle—it’s a spoilage scare needing a quick fix. Let’s dry this RM1350 in 5 minutes and camp on—no more wet woes.
Digging Into the Leak Letdown
Grab a flashlight and play fridge fixer—open doors, peek low. Puddle at base—drain tube under crisper; gunked or loose? Drip tray—pull out; cracked or full?
Condensation heavy—frost on coils? Door seal—pinch test; gaps? Each splash’s a clue—trace the trickle on your Dometic RM1350.
Fixing the Leak Lapse (5 Minutes)
Dry it fast—drain clogged? Clear tube (pipe cleaner, $2, 2 min)—push through, flush water. Tray full? Empty (sink, 1 min)—check cracks; swap if bad (Dometic tray, $15). Seal loose? Wipe, press firm (1 min)—no gaps.
Test—run fridge 5 min, check floor; dry’s your gold; drips stay? Pro for coil check ($75+). In 5 minutes, your fridge is tight—you’re the camp cooler.
Preventing Leak Lurks
Keep it dry—clear drain monthly; muck builds fast. Empty tray—spills pile quick. Check seals—dirt breaks grip. And level RV—tilts flood coils. Your Dometic RM1350 should now chill clean. If your Winnebago won’t level off, see this guide for starting fixes.
