Thetford T2160 door reversal

[cliffanger]

Has anyone had to reverse the door orientation on the Thetford T2160 fridge?

The instruction manual says it’s easy, but the handle seems to be fixed into the panel, and we don’t want to exert too much pressure for fear of breaking something.

Have you looked at the installation manual? The picture shows the handle is held in by 2 screws.

Just done it on an older Thetford and it was a PITA! All other makes of 3 way fridges that I've owned had fixing holes ready to switch things around, Thetford did not.

Sorted! I went on YouTube and someone was replacing a handle.

The manual didn’t say that you had to get the spring mechanism out with a screwdriver.

All done now, so happiness has been restored!

I’m pleased you’re sorted. The manual made it look so easy!

I think there was a page missing!

Cliff’s just said - do you realise that the price of the fridge is the same price as one of the headlights

Pleased you’re all sorted now!

Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful when you called earlier!

No problem Harv!

It surprises me that all you people we rang haven’t changed your doors! You clearly have more space around your fridges than I have!
