Hi Bob, I believe you are talking about the air dryer. Haldex makes them and have a few different models, I know this is asking a lot but- if you have a picture, I can give you the part #. As a man of my word, I owe you a donut... 99 out of 100 times of not building air or 'rapid' air leak will be your governor. Your governor was nearing the end of its service life so consider that "preventative maintenance" and potentially a breakdown on the road, and of course it would happen to be at not so convenient time nor place. 🙂
Hello 1nolaguy, I can say the last few I have repaired have had the mastic just totally separate due to age or not making contact, whatsoever which would not allow the unit to cool. I would say if you are in repair mode and have an infrared thermometer or FLIR camera, check the left and right freezer temp as well as fridge, and let us know what you are getting for temps. That will tell me a lot, at that point I can guide you in a direction.
Door seals: I can also say without seeing it, if you can get a piece of paper and slide it around the door without tearing it- they are bad. The slightest seal not making contact with the fridge body will allow most of your cold out, which at that point you are playing catchup, and if you weren't cold to begin with- its a losing battle and you are chasing your tail my friend. The "big fridge" lobby doesn't sell the seals cheap and we usually have to end up getting new doors, just to get the seals, and that is never worth it in my book.
My $.02 worth: ditch the never cold! I had good luck with my 1200 in my last coach, good seals, etc- but smart money is on a replacement.
Hope to hear back sir, best of luck!
