Sometimes the best recourse is to bite the bullet, spend the bucks, and get a new one. I'm super happy with my new one.

I agree with Jim here. I didn't have the ammonia smell, but at best would only hold about 42 in the bottom. The door seals were so bad that you could see gaps.
Then it got worse!
I replaced with a Norcold that required some modification detailed in
Norcold N841 IM Replacing a Dometic RM 1303 AES. This summer I am still overjoyed to have it. It works perfectly, and I no longer worry about my food, either frozen or refrigerated. I will admit that I'm not getting -12 in the freezer, but I don't have it turned down enough to freeze things in the bottom. It will do that at some settings.
