The ammonia smell is due to the leakage of your thermostat so, you need help of a Refrigerator Repair Expert, to fix the problem as It is never possible for you to fix it yourself.

SOURCE: My Dometic has a very styrong smell of ammonia.

TURN THE REFRIGERATOR OFF AND DO NOT USE!!!!
You have a bad cooling unit. This is the entire assembly on the back of the refrigerator that draws the heat out of the box. You will have to either have the cooling unit replaced or buy a new refrigerator. The cost difference is usually around 200 to 500 depending.

Hope this helps,

Jeff

Shut it off and get it checked. Ammonia is dangerous as I am sure you are aware. Ammonia smell is an indication of a leaking cooling unit. Time for a new fridge. Sorry.

Had a strong Amonia smell. Fridge wants to turn on but no cooling.
Strong Ammonia smell is dead give away for LEAK. Ammonia is the chief ingredient in the absorption type cooing system. Probably not economical to repair. For a second opinion, contact a Dometic Authorized Service Center.

Fridge stopped cooling and after about 3 hours had a strong odor of amonia
this is serious problem you have to deal with. since you said you said you smelt ammonia like odour one of the cooling tubes (evaporator ) should have been broken are should contain a small opening or something.do not switch on the refrigerator untill you repair it with an authorized service personnel.do not try disassemble the cooling tubes yourself since incorrect repairing will cause the coolant to evaporate easily and it will cost heavy to replace it.!!!

Odor from Maytag dryer
Have you cleaned your vent lately? It might be excessively outgassing an ammonia smell because some plastic part that is getting too hot. If the vent is making it run hot or not exhausting it might stink up the room. Otherwise, it might just be stinky plastic. I don't know anything about your specific model, but I had a bread maker that was the source of a garlic & ****-like ammonia smell on the top cover after the plastic turned yellow from heat & age. Not a good feature for something that makes food and lives in the kitchen.

Norcold 982 will not get cold.
If the there is a strong ammonia odor and no cooling, then you probably have a leak in the system somewhere. These types of absorption units must be repaired in a specialty shop. The most common place for a leak is the condenser coil, but can also be the evaporator inside the unit, if the odor seems to emanate from that area.
