The  Dometic manual states to soak the
orifice in alcohol and blow with  air.  I soaked
mine and took it to my RV dealer who shot  compressed
air throught it since I don't have any at home and it
has  worked fine since.

I  just cleaned one yesterday for a customer that was blocked solid  !
Soaked in lacquer thinner for a few hours then blew out with compressed  air from
my compressor and ran a strand of copper wire through to get it nice  and
clean.  Fridge now working like new !
