I brought my 4 door Norcold refer model 1200 in to the shop for service. The 2 fans attached to the coils were not working. Following the repair the unit is now cooling well however, it is now sweating inside the top of the refrigerator water droplets form. I have checked the door seals they passed the dollar bill test.This problem started after the repair. Any suggestions.

Thanks

There are two pins left side of left hand door check to see if they are ok and making contact. There is a heater element in doors so they won't sweat.
They may have disconnected wire for heater on control board. There is no switch that I'm aware of like on Domedics.

The pins seem to be ok and make contact but the sweating is not on the door but the roof of the refrigerator.

Maybe your suppose to have some insulation on top of refer and its getting heat from outside on top of refer. They did have to pull out refer to get at the fans, looking at backsides and checking top of mine, the top of refer is cool no sweat.

It sounds as if the "Divider Heater" has been disconnected, You may want to look at the service manuals at http://www.bryantrv.com/docs.html
for some ideas

I wasn't clear enough I meant sweating on the interior , I don't think the divider heater would effect the interior roof.

chzgil,if you look at the installation of refer in the bryant link you will see a baffle that directs heat out of the top of box when the fans operate. Your missing the baffle or insullation on top of refer and heat from refer and heat from outside is heating up the top of your refers exterior box surface and transfering this heat into your freezer compartment. There for sweat.
When they put your refer back in space they bent baffle or removed it or insulation on top of box.
