winterizing fridge

[Jake101]

Got the trailer all winterized and ready to store, but came up with one problem. We have a Samsung residential refrigerator in our rv and I don't see a way to block the doors open for the winter. I know how to lock them for traveling, but this is not like the old style rv fridge. Any ideas.

I have a Samsung Residential in my Montana. When I turn power off to the refrigerator (unplug it), I simply place a small hand towel over each door to hold it open. Then I use a small bungee cord to tie the doors together so they don't flop open. I've traveled with the doors set up like this and had no issues. Just get the bungee cord tight enough the doors don't move.

You did pump the water from the ice maker?

[Jake101]

Oh yes, All water is out of trailer and fridge.

Jake, if you open the doors then put the screw in holder in with the doors open it works to prevent them from closing too.

Thanks every one for information.

Go to the dollar store and get a pool noodle. The large one if you can find it. Cut it in smaller size tubes, and then cut it on one side. Place that noodle on door trays, or shelves or the produce trays. It will keep the doors open and won't damage the fridge.

We also have a Samsung residential fridge in our 2017 3791RD. There is a white bat all along the inside of the left door (where the doors close together) that can be flipped to keep the doors from closing after einterizing. There I also screw in the door stop to prevent from fall open when closing center section of slides. Good luck.
