This morning our refrig would beep for a short time about every 5 minutes. It is hooked up to shore power and the the electric light on the fridge does not blink so it's getting power. I switched to propane and no beeping. It's back on shore power now and it has quit beeping. This our first long trip so we did have a full fridge. Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Make sure that the door is completely closed. If it isn't, it will periodically beep like that.

The other reason that it will start beeping is if the shore power is interrupted for some reason.

Thanks. We did notice one of our door shelves was not positioned correctly. Although the door closed it must of been just enough to not make a proper seal. This may or may not have been the problem but the beeping has stopped.

There was a beeping problem with the frigs when condensation gets into the track behind the inside light. If you query the search box about frig beeping you should see the fix that Forest River sent out.
