This fridge has an auto selector where I can select either AC, DC or propane. It is stuck on DC and I can't get it to switch to an alternative power source.
Yes, my inverter has both fuses and breakers. When I turn the fridge off, the inverter fan stops spinning, but when I turn it back on, it defaults to DC power and the inverter fan start going again.
Auto Mode will only swap between AC and GAS
DC Mode is manually selected.
Can you manually select DC......turn it ON/OFF?
DC Mode will over-ride AC/Gas modes so DC ON/OFF must be OFF!
Can you place fridge in 'Auto' ? Place it on 'GAS' ?
IF upper panel malfunctions the fridge will select power source to keep fridge operating.
AC power first, then DC power, Then Gas. (1 of 2 limp modes)
And instead of 'inverter' you most likely mean 'converter'
(Inverter has DC input from battery and then AC output to run AC powered equipment....outlets etc.
Converter has an AC input and then DC output to charge batteries and run DC powered equipment..lights, water pump, furnace, control circuits etc)
