I've checked most of this but not all (thanks for the quick replies!)
It's definitely plugged in to 120VAC right now (batt full) and everything else works fine, all the breakers are fine as well. I haven't actually pulled the cover and checked for power at the refer plug, but I'll do that tomorrow.
I'm pretty sure propane is fine, but I haven't pressed the propane button as I just got this thing and don't entirely trust it yet (I know, it's stupid - but if it's plugged in I just leave the gas button off.. can't hurt)
I'll check propane just out of curiosity, but again I didn't press the button so that's probably a different issue. I need the thing to be working on AC anyways. :(
It is level on all axis.
It seems strange to me that it takes about 5 minutes for the "check" light to illuminate. I feel like that's probably NOT a good sign if it's trying to run on AC.
Edit: FWIW after about 15 seconds of turning the switch ON again, I can hear a click or two in the back of the refer unit. Not sure if this is significant or not, but it appears to have power.
In all the paper work when you bought this new/used....zero mile TT did you get the manual for fridge?
Now would be a GOOD time to read it and HOW fridge operates.
In 'AUTO' firdge controls select AC 1st.
If AC NOT available..swaps to GAS
'Check' Light comes on after fridge tries to light main flame and fails 3 times
IF you select GAS....that is the only mode fridge will attempt to run on. 3 tries....'check' light
Clicking could be AC heater relay making up
OF
spark electrode firing lighting off propane cause AC not available
Manual...READ IT
