Frig. Stopped Working

[Rob Robinson]

Curt you could buy yourself on of those little bar fridges from Walmart to keep a few things cold while waiting for the correct replacement fridge to come in. This with bag ice would get you through Quartzite for probably less than $120- $150. when you get home you'll have a little bar fridge for the workshop.

Thank you all for your replies.

Currently doing the standard repair/service 24 hour test... re-wired frig. direct with AC (by passing ALL elec. controls). This test will tell if the cooling unit is bad. Should the frig. get very cold in 24 hours then it's the elec. control(s).


The frig. is the original unit from the factory. Agree that it most likely should be replaced, but I'm out here near Bullhead City, AZ. It will take a few days to get a new frig., then to install it will take another day. I had planned to arrive Quartzsite today.


I just might pack food in coolers, buy dry ice, and head down to Quartzsite and check out the service/repair available there.

Hi Curt,

If it is the original frig, It is time to replace,
The original frig get confused with the ignition key shut down, & the
timing of when to return to operation and which mode to chose.
Depending on the model # it may need both 12 volts and 120V to

operate on 120 AC. It coold also be more than one problem such as
Electronic board, ignitor on propane and or 12 V supply, and or
ammonia.
