The freezer door will not stay closed. It just flops down. Bad spring maybe? Not really sure what is going on.

Do a search as other people have had this problem and parts are available from Dometic. I think there is a plastic piece and spring that is needed.

Thanks. Looks like I have all the parts just need to tighten the spring. That outta be fun. Pretty tight quarters.

Normally it is a plastic part that breaks. No way to adjust the spring. Had this happen to mine on our trip to Alaska. The part does not cost much an I carry a spare left and right. Go to the dometic website and download the parts break down to order the part. When you remove the door and compare the left and right hinge assy you will see which part is broken.
 
I am having the same problem, but I can't see any damage plastic part. Where it is located exactly?

Have you done this, search your model number.
