Can a Norcold 3 way fridge be made to run with no battery?

I think pasusan may be right. I had a 1970's something Apache popup and I think the 3-way frig would run on propane without a battery. I would give it a try and see if it works. Just remember, once you light the pilot light and set the temperature you will have to leave it for about 12 hours before you can tell if it is working or not. These things aren't instantaneous cold. And leave the door shut, the more times you open it the longer it will take.
