Rpod179. Refrigerator keep beeping every 2min for 15 seconds. All systems running good, no flashing indicating lights. Did this all night. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

The last time this happened to me - the GCI CB had kicked and I was using AC to power fridge.

It is probably the "door open beeper" (this drove me NUTZ!) If you look at your door switch, there is a small cable that goes into a circuit board and when the board gets "damp" from condensation, it causes the fridge to think the door is open. I disconnected the cable, and no more beeping. This will cause your Fridge light to not work, but that was a small price to pay to not have it go off in the middle of the night!

Had the same issue with my 178. Condensation under the light cover. Refrigerator thinks door is open, beep, beep, beep. Yes have disconnected the light but you can try coating the contacts with bulb grease.
