Default Norcold refrigerater just died

My Norcold DF0704 stopped working on 110. Seems to work fine on 12 volt.
It was probably original with the boat, so it must be 20 years old.

Replace or repair?

It looks like that model isn't made any more and what I see (on a very
quick look) shows that none of the new ones fit the cutout.

Maybe i just haven't found the right one yet.

What have you all done?

Thanks



Take a good look at NovaKool for a replacement. Every Norcold I've had was
noisy and underpowered as far as cooling is concerned. Two years ago I
replaced the Norcold that came with the boat with a NovaKool. Much quieter
and stays cold. (the one in this boat is a 90 cubic foot with separate
freezer on the bottom. We also replaced the original Norcold on my wife's
boat with a smaller NovaKool model and it also works quietly and nicely.
