I would also look at a new total replacement first to see if there is one that fits the RV’s fridge space. If the goal is to go with compressor cooling, thereby eliminating absorption (and propane), there are more units now being made that run on 120 VAC or 12 VDC.
Only as an example of what’s available, Norcold makes a 7 cubic foot that only uses a claimed .4 Amps on 120 AC and 3.2 Amps on 12 DC. For comparison that’s roughly the size you’d find in Axis/Vegas or many Class Cs.
It’s interesting that in the new Mercedes View tested by MotorHome magazine, Winnebago went with a compressor-only fridge; although a little small at 5 cubic feet for a Class C.
