Hi there.

I recently purchased a 340 sedan bridge and the fridge seems very noise when its running... I think it just needs to be cleaned but i dont know how to get it out of there. My sea ray manual said to loosen the screw's attaching it to the floor. Well I can't find any screws attaching it to the floor. It is a Norcold fridge but the model # is a bit hard to read. I think its DE-7041...
Does anybody know where would the screws be? I will try and get a picture. Thanks!
 
usally when you open the door, there are screws around the trim that go into the cabinet. once you remove those slide the cabinet forward
 
It's the small phillips head screws in the black trim around the fridge. Once the fridge is free just slide it forward.
 
there might be plastic caps covering the screws on the face where the door seal touches just pop the caps and the screws are under the caps.

I had same issue on mine, plus an odd smell.
here is how I got mine out. If I can get down to the boat I will take some photos.
take door off, makes life easier.
two recessed screws on top and bottom about 2 inches long - lord knows why, they only needed to be a half inch.
then remove the mesh at bottom of refrigerator (probably rusty and nasty, but one or two screws in mesh hold it to unit)
then dig around in the dust, old doritos and beer caps, and you will find 2 screws holding the unit to floor. get those two guys out and your home free. Or do what I did, and bust up all the wood then find screws....
