Fridge on or off during storage?
I have seen both sides; some keeping the doors open to avoid mold, some say never turn the Norcold off, if you can help it. What say all you knowledgeable folks?

Well...........
DO you have your MH plugged in to AC Power Source when in storage?
(RV Fridge needs 12V DC in order to function be it electric or propane. It will not last long on propane w/o batteries being recharged!!)
Is your MH level when parked in storage?
(Rv Fridge needs to be reasonably level to avoid damage)
Is your reason to run fridge because you want to leave items in it or just for mold/mildew issue?
(Mold/mildew easily avoided by propping doors open for free.....running fridge will do same but cost you roughly $30+ month in AC Power)
No real data that leaving on or turning off/on is better one way or other -------there are no mechanical parts to wear out etc.
RV Fridges DIE due to off level operation, lack of draft---overheating, improper installation
