ok fridge time .
power and gas run .
I have not tested for 12v at fridge yet but plan on doing do in the morning.
So this is a three way fridge as I have found in one of my other threads.
I read the starting instructions that are listed on the fridge .
but is there any way of telling if the fridge is running with out waiting ......3 days.
gas is flowing through as I attempted to light it today but gave up and moved on to other final touches that need to get gone
the fridge is not high on my list but would like to know if it even works .
the PO said he could never get it working .. not sure how hard he tried I think by the sounds of things he just tried 12v and thats about it .
I will also check 120v at the same time.

Feel the burner/heater stack and see if it is getting hot?
Look for a gas flame?
Check for 120V AC power?
Check for 12v DC power?

Take your coffee with you! Add one jigger of Yukon Jack!
Locate make and model of refer.
Many things could be an issue. Just take your time and do one check at a time.
First thing is to insure that it has 12 volts DC as no functions will operate on electrically controlled units without it.
Check for fuses on circuit board, if equipped.

Well first there is a blue wire laying on the bottom of the compartment. That is a fuse holder and it needs a fuse in it or nothing is going to happen. Second you should probably verify that the fuse holder is receiving 12 volts DC.

I think the 12 volt "white plug" is really a terminal block, look for screw heads at the bottom of the round holes in the white block. The screws need to be snug, not too tight the plastic block could break or strip out.

Our old pop-up camper made in the late 90s had a 3-way fridge and it kept things coldest on the 12v power supply.
