Monaco did not connect the refer to the Inverter. They DID connect the Inverter to the refer Icemaker. So, if you want the refer to run off Inverter, access the outside access door and you will see 2 -120 volt receptacles. Usually, Monaco labeled each Receptacle. INV on one. Use the INV and plug your refer cord into that. You may have to use a 1 to 3 plug in adapter as some of those receptacles do not have 2 plug ins. Doug
Norcold 1200 model is what you should have. Monaco optioned Norcold refers with 2 power cords to run the Icemaker seperately from the refer for the Inverter
There are two plugs in the access panel. The fridge is plugged into one (top outlet) and the ice maker is plugged into the outlet which is mounted 3 inches or so below the other. I assume Monaco wired the ice maker like you said and it is running from the inverter.
If the genset doesn't work when I leave Sunday and since my engine will be running and charging and I have about 400 watts of solar, do you think it would be OK to run the fridge from the inverter. It would be for about a two hour trip. If not I'll eat and drink everything in there. :E
