It's set to the "plug". The breaker isn't tripped. I'm not sure if it's plugged into GFCI in the back. How do I find that out?

Thanks for your help!

The fridge takes a long time to cool.. days if empty. and then it doesn't have any reserve if you load it with warm stuff. Always have your contents precooled/frozen. What mode do you have the fridge on? If you are using a dog bone adapter, and the batteries are charging, you are using a lot of amps. Try turning the fridge all the way off, then back on, and reselecting the power source and temp. Make sure the breaker isn't tripped, the GFCI isn't tripped and the fridge is plugged in in that back.

Quick update. the fridge was plugged in all night. Temp set to coldest setting. After opening to test the temp (not cold), that's when all the indicator lights start flashing.

Hi all, 

I plugged our 179 into the house to get the fridge cool and batteries charged for our fist dry camp. I have the camco 30 amp dog bone adapter. I'm not sure when it happens, but at some point the refrigerator is getting reset--all indicator lights flashing, no beeps. It appears that the power is somehow getting tripped. Any ideas on how to remedy this? 

Thanks!
