RV service -Tacoma-Olympia, WA

I'm in Olympia, WA (65 miles south of Seattle, 35 miles south of Tacoma) and know of only one recommended RV service place - Baydo's in Chehalis (south of me), but their first appointment a month out.
I have an electrical problem which may have fried the control panel for the fridge (Dometic 3.1); I have a 13-foot.
Anyone out there from my area who loves their service people?
Appreciate your suggestions, I'd rather not rely totally on web reviews like Yelp.
Thanks

Hi Jean, sorry to hear of your need for a repair. Home | Northwest Coach Truck Trailer and Marine Is closer than Chahalis, but I don't know anything about them.

Just curious but do you know anything about the electrical problem? How it started and why you think it might have fried the fridge?

Hi Jean,
Im sorry that I don't have a positive addition to your trailer refer problem, but ..... I recommend you stay away from Olympic Trailers and Service on (I think) Martin Way. I had them wire a 7 pin connection for my future Escape. They did a very poor job for a ridiculous amount of money. A week later I had my Cherokee into my mechanics for some service and was told that I should have that wiring completely redone.

I looked around the Olympia area and found another RV Service place near Evergreen State / Mud Bay .... forget the name of the place. I don't know how techical they are. Unfortunately, I had Olympic Trailer do my work. Live and learn right?

I think I would suggest looking around Tacoma or Seattle.
Good Luck,

Tom
