hi, i have a 2 berth 1990 elddis wisp.
recently the fridge has started to come loose from the cabinet.
i think it is moving when towing, i used to be able to see the pilot light in the bottom corner and now i can't.
i'm concerned i'm going to arrive on site and find it in the middle of the floor!(i know someone this happened to)
does anyone have any practical tips on how i can sort this- I'm thinking of getting a joiner to rebuild the cabinet around it?
the fridge is a small electrolux model ?rm 2 range
thanks

We had a loosening fridge and it was because the fixing screws had just been forced through the fixing hole in the replacement fridge without the holes being pre-drilled so that the screws were tight in the fridge metal side
After pre-drilling and rescrewing with pronged T nuts used on the other side of the wooden cabinet it was much more secure
The pronged nuts were needed as the holes in the wood were enlarged due to the initial poor fit

Don't forget if the fridge is capable of running on gas that the gas pipe and flue may well have been stressed.
