Our new 182G Frig was working for the first week on electric. We turned it off for a couple days. Now it won't work on electric, same plug in, parked in the same place. Light is flashing but it is on 120 current. We fixed several things already...now this!

Check fuse and reset ground fault outler. Ours worked when we reset it. Don't know why. Hope this works for you.

Thank-you 21grandma, fuse was fine, resetting the ground fault did the trick! Many thanks again!

The "brains" work on 12 volts, but the AC mode uses 120 volts. If you get nothing at all the 12 volt fuse is blown. If the LEDs light up you have 12 volts, but the flashing LED in AC mode tells you the 120 volt supply is out. Power outage, bad connection on either end of the power cord, tripped circuit breaker, tripped GFCI outlet (what you found), bad fridge outlet or plug (you'll find this in the outside fridge compartment), are all possible problems on the AC side.

| Our GFCI keeps tripping. We have only used the frig & radio or TV and fan. We haven't used any water yet. We keep finding it off the next morning. There does seem to be some moist under the sink. Any ideas? |

| Found a water leak. Hot water is dripping down onto a circuit under the sink. |

Pipe thread and tighten, check your other connections while under there. ------------- https://calendar.google.com/calendar?cid=cnBvZC5zcG90dGVyQGdtYWlsLmNvbQ - RPod Rallies https://www.google.com/maps/d/embed?mid=1W1foQXGtrjf8aYly1uh0b-bHPfI&hl=en_US - RPod Owner Map |
