But at least we can duplicate it. I am not pissed yet, just plenty annoyed. I have hope because Norcold promised that the Hi Altitude kit is now on the way to our local Winnebago authorized repair place, and it is scheduled to be installed Friday, July 25th. This will be just tim for a ten day trip that we have planned to Glacier. > >Last summer I called Winnebago from Banff about these problems and they >told me then that the problem was the orifice.

Boulder RV tells me that two things are needed: 1) the different sized orifice (which I think is narrower but I am not sure), and 2) the second vent to the outside at the bottm of the refrigerator. I will get and post details when I see the actual kit, i.e., Hi Altitude Vent Kit, Norcold Part No. 618960 <snip> >Kevin Thanks for your comments.
