Norcold 1200

I have a 06 National Sea Breeze! I am wondering if I am suppose to hear fans at the back of the fridge from cooling fan's?? I have a frien with the same fridge and he says he can hear his fans run some of the time! I have read on this site that there is some wired backwards is this correct??

    Wired backwards and you will still hear them/ I have worked on hundreds of 1200's over the years and have never seen the fans wired backwards. The age of your RV is about the time that the fans will fail. You have to pull the refer to do any diagnostics on the fan system. IF it is determined that the fans are bad, replace both AND the Fan tstat. The tstat also fails after more than 5 years. If it is determined that the tstat is bad and fans run, REPLACE the fans also, as you have already pulled the refer to check the system. Doug
  • There are two fans back there that are thermostatically controlled so they are not on all the time. They are fairly quiet but you should be able to hear them sometimes.
