1. You CANNOT reset a Norcold control module by disconnecting 120 and 12 volt power, regardless of how long you leave it disconnected.
2. The ONLY way to reset a non functioning Norcold Board (NO CO CODE) is to use a jumper wire to ground OR, doing a specific procedure for the newer module boards that can be reset without the jumper wire.
3. IF the refer works on LP, then there is NO problem that can be fixed by a reset as the board is functioning
4. If ON Auto and you have 120 volts and it runs on LP, then the 99% odds are the 120 fuse on the circuit board is BAD. BUT, for the fuse to go bad, there must be a reason. Usually, 1 of the 2- 120 elements has either a short (will blow the fuse immediately) or an intermittent short that happens when the defective element gets hot. IF the unit is over 10 years old and the 120 fuse blows, it is BEST to replace BOTH 120 elements as well as the fuse. Doug
