Thanks, Frank & Eric. I didn't realize you guys are on 110V way up north. Pardon my ignorance.

I found someone selling the heating element from a Dometic fridge. Now comes the fun part. Someone local is giving away a partially disassembled Westy fridge. If I get it, my problem will be solved for very little $. 

Cheers,

If you can find the 110v replacement heating element that could be neater but you need to find it.  The converters are easy to locate.

The problem is it uses 220V instead of 110V. So unless you're Canadian and want to buy this off me, I need assistance in converting this to 110V. As far as I know, the heating element would be what needs replacement. Assuming this is an ammonia fridge like those found in Westies. Thought about just installing a step-up transformer or DC converter but replacing the element will make CDO (in alphabetical order) person in me happier.
