Hello folks, when dry camping with my 2021 Magic Chef 12v reefer I have been turning it off at night to prevent battery draw down and also to prevent unwanted noise. To do this requires me to hold the off button inside the fridge for 10 seconds to power down. This results in a lot of...
We had an issue with lots of ice building up in our residential Frigidaire freezer and subsequently the freezer constantly running. We realized that a Dynamax installed bracket, which holds the refrigerator doors in place while traveling, was preventing the freezer door seal from closing...
Can't stop thinking about pulling the trigger on this dual zone. 5 year warranty on the compressor too. Unfortunately selling my Luna weekender dual zone with my old build or I wouldn't be posting this. The price is almost too good.
Any thoughts...
I’ve recently encountered a problem with the right side refrigerator door coming open while driving. The latching mechanism does appear to have weakened over time but is still serviceable. I do have a new spare handle but prefer not to use it until the current handle actually fails or breaks...
Hi Escape community!!
Any opinions on driving down the road with the propane on for the 3 cu ft refrigerator? VS the solar electric? I am going on a long trip this summer and don't want the food to spoil as we have 6-8 hour driving days in the hot weather. I have a 2018 17B. 1 battery. 160W...
I have a LG house type refrigerator in my 2020 Georgetown 369ds and I have a problem with everything freezing in the refrigerator. I put a digital thermometer in the fridge and it seems to go all over the place. I replaced the temperature sensor and it still seems to freeze everything. I set the...
While doing a system check for an upcoming trip, I discovered that the gas part of the Dometic fridge wasn't working. After determining that all the other gas elements worked fine, I figured that the fridge was the problem. When I put it on gas, I could hear the igniter and hear the gas...
I dry camp often, Is there an easy way to turn off the electric outside refridge? Mine doesn't have a switch inside of it to turn on and off and the electric outlet is not easy to get to.
Has anyone installed an portable dual voltage (12V/110V) refrigerator in on the outside stage bins? I have a 2021 Force HD 37BH and am thing about adding one for drinks. If so, can you share photos/make/model?
Thanks!
We are in the process of buying a wildwood x lite 263bhxl. I know the inside refrigerator is a 12v dc powered refrigerator. But my question is, is the refrigerator in the outdoor kitchen 12v dc as well?
Hey everyone,
We have a 2019 Serra 384qbok fifth wheel. Over the time we have had the unit, there have been some ongoing electrical issues.
First we brought the unit home and it sat in the yard about about 3 weeks prior to use. Had to charge the batteries to get the hydraulic jacks to...
How RV Refrigerators Work
There are 2 brands of refrigerators commonly found in RVs:
Dometic RV refrigerator
Norcold RV refrigerator
Both operate under the same principles.
This is how an RV refrigerator operates:
A sealed cooling element is heated — either with a gas flame or an electric...
I survived -28 but my refrigerator hasn’t worked since. I returned from out of town about 5-days after the -28 and everything was defrosting. I’ve turned it off and let it set for a few days and turned it on and it just doesn’t get cold. All the lights come on so I’m hoping someone can help me...
When I unplug from power, I can hear clicking outside behind the refrigerator....my propane will not come on has anyone else experienced this? The propane tanks are working because we can light the stove and oven. The heater works fine too.
We have tried to manually light the pilot. It worked...
I've read other threads about the defrost on/off switch that will kill your battery when boondocking. I remember this from my dearly loved and long departed 2003 TT.
Dang if I can find it in my E-PRO 19fbs. Do I have one or not?
Thanks in advance
The residential refrigerator (GE) is not working on 12V. Along with the refrigerator, the TV and recliners don't work. The heater works and the lights. I reset the breaker, looked at the fuses in the bedroom which are good. I'm guessing it has something to do with the inverter. What do I...
I have a 2014 Georgetown. It has a residential refrigerator. It started leaning towards he back. When I open the doors it crunches the wood on the side. What is causing this? Did some brackets come loose in the back of the refrigerator? Is it on a base and the base broke? How can I fix it?
We are installing a french door residential refrigerator (Samsung RF18A5101SR) that does not have typical door handles.
Any suggestions on how to keep the doors closed while traveling in a 2011 Georgetown motorhome?
Any ideas are appreciated.
Take Care.
I have a Dometic double door Fridge. When the doors are closed there's a little flipper thing (?? :-) ) that rotates and seals up the gap between the two doors. Makes sense?
Anyway, the hinge where this is mounted to the door has pulled away from the inner plastic mold and foam core. Dometic...
I have a 2019 Forest River Sabre 316BHQ and I have lost power from the breaker to the refrigerator( domestic 110v) does not have power from the inverter or shore power. I am in need of a schematic of this circuit from the breaker to refrigerator and inverter. I have made numerous calls to Forest...
Hello everyone. I am a new owner of a 2021 Imagine 2670MK - purchased Thursday, took 'er out this past weekend. After our first use, both my wife and I think the right side hinge on the Dometic DM2882 fridge is a little awkward considering the rear left placement of the refrigerator on the...
I seem to be having cognitive issues. I need to know if, when on LP, the pilot should always be lit? Or does the pilot only come on when the refer calls for cooling?
We have a 2011 Georgetown DS360 which came with a Dometic RM1350 4 door refrigerator. We have been swapping out parts (thermistor, lower control board) to get the correct refrigerator operating temperature with erratic results. I am thinking that the cooling unit may be getting clogged.
So...
We have a 2017 Sandpiper 379FLOK
It has an LG Refrigerator model LFCS22520S
What should the temp settings for the Refrigerator and the Freezer be set on? We keep our RV plugged up all year round and keep some things in the refrigerator (as extra storage) when our house refrigerator is full.
I am so happy to have found this forum. As a travel trailer newbie, I have questions and everyone here has been very helpful. Thank you in advance.
This time, my question relates to prepping the refrigerator for a weekend at the campground. Note: I do not have any electricity at my storage...
