Here is a RV.net fan project.

I use a small battery operated fan inside the fridge to improve operation of fridge. Works well.

There is another fan upgrade that is used mostly on fridges that do not have a roof vent for fridge. Used on RV's that have fridge mounted in a slide. Here is a RV.net post on the subject.

We've used a small "inside the fridge" fan for many years on both Dometic & Norcold units and it's worked well for us. For best results you place it so that the air flow blows across the fridge cooling fins. Bill
