Thanks again.  I'm also in Colorado, in Boulder.

The fridge worked great for many years (I've had this '87 for about 13
years).  It stopped staying lit last year, and I've been working on it off
and on since.  I don't know what changed. The local RV shop had it out
twice and couldn't fix it.  It does seem not far from fine, but there's
some critical factor, some nonlinear variable, that is just a little off.
Of course, that's a WAGuess.  :-)
