    Hi,

    Everytime I have asked a question here I have received really helpful advice. Hope this is the case again. I have 1986 Carver 3207 with a Norcold de 728 ac/dc refrigerator. The door seals are totally pooched.

    Does anyone know where I can find parts for this old unit? Or is it unheard of to retrofit a door seal from another fridge? ANy idea who I could call for this?

    Thanks all.

    You should be able to find a replacement at any refrigerator spare part dealer, just measure your old gasket or if you can and have a key lock in the unit, pull the old gasket away to get the best match, if not, you can always glue it back on.

    Cheers,

    Alfred

    Go to your nearest RV parts outfit that carries appliances as well. You'll need the model # and I believe the serial and/or product # too. They should be able to order you one. I've located parts for refers a lot older than yours. Although there was a couple refer models that required you to purchase the entire door to replace seals as they were built into the door. You can also order through a distr by the name of Northwest Trailer Parts. Google the name to get the web address. Last resort call AAA Appl in Sacramento,Ca, at 916-922-3440

    That number I posted was incorrect for AAA Appliance. Correct # is 916-929-9777
    Just find an RV parts outfit locally and have them order seals. As a last ditch if seals are not avail.(which I doubt) I have used bulb seals on VERY old refers. I had to try several different types but they worked. Good Luck.
