| Hia My kitchen tap as developed a lot of movement Do I have to drain all water out of tank if or when I decide how to dismantle it. Or will not having the pump on stop the water flowing out. Yes I know it's a silly question but I have to ask. If I give the tap a tug I'm sure it will come out of the hole it's sits in. I can't get to it any other way as the fridge is under the sink I just want to get to it to investigate but worried water will come spurting out everywhere | |

| No, the fridge should be a sealed unit, the older models weren't always sealed, but they are now. I had a similar problem Polly, I had to remove the sink to tighten mine, but I have a panel at the top of the fridge I can take off to access the sink drain, if you haven't got this it could mean having to take the fridge out _________________ Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |

Don't think that front panel over the fridge comes off But will check Also the draw didn't come out and when you take the knife and fork tray out ' there is no bottom in the draw but I couldn't access the tap. If I can't access the tap After Easter hols will get Carl from motorhome Leisure Services to come and have a look . | |

| Hia Went in the van and tried to pull fridge out no luck started cleaning. Rob and Fran called but sadly nothing working. So I have just googled and I have instructions. 4 caps inside the fridge 4 screws. So taken caps off and tried screws can't turn them anymore. But I feel relieved that the fridge hopefully will give me access Will call my man tomorrow and hope he's not away all week.

| Get someone to do it Polly, not just a case of removing the 4 screws, there's a gas pipe to be removed, 12v electrics and 240v electrics _________________ Keeping Leapys boat sailing [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] | |
