Fridge doesn't work?? 1993 Winnebago Warrior
I just purchased a 1993 Winnebago Warrior 22ft. It's my first RV and I'm still figuring out how everything works. The problem is the fridge is not coming on. I checked to see if there is power ...

Fridge needs 12V DC to operate the control circuit.
12V DC comes from battery and/or converter (when on shore power--120V AC)
Fridge uses 120V AC for electric heater element
Fridge uses LP propane for 'GAS' ..........propane has to be valved in and flowing.
Do you have panel lights on fridge that work?
Check AC Dist. Panel for tripped breaker.
Check DC Dist. Panel for blown fuse
RV fridge is an absorption refrigerator and doesn't make noise when running (no compressor)
They also need to be level to operate correctly...off level operation will cause damage (accumulative damage until it dies)
They do not get cold quickly.....need to be operating several hours before freezer section will begin cooling down and then a few more hours for food section to cool.
What Brand/Model? Dometic-Norcold etc.
