NORCOLD N7V - Red Light When On Gas
I have a Norcold N7V that is showing a red light when changing to gas mode. The unit is about 1.5 yrs old and we run it on AC 99% of the time. I decided to test the gas mode and the red error light ...

Norcold N7V Service Manual
Pg 15
*If the power ON/indicator light is solid RED, there is a problem and the refrigerator is not cooling. Refer to "Fault Codes N7V and N8V Models" section.
Pg 17. Fault Codes
Should none of the heat source inputs be available, the poser ON/indicating light will be solid RED.
Solid RED see Fault Code Pg 18.
Possible Cause:
120VAC not available. Refrigerator defaulted to propane gas operation, but did not establish a flame (Gas Lockout)
So are you SURE the Flame is lighting off and STAYING Lit??
*No pilot flame....main flame is ignited by spark electrode
Flow Chart goes thru ALL the steps to check (AC & GAS) if solid RED Fault Light
IF you do in fact have solid RED AND the Main Flame IS ON/Stays ON then try GAS MANUAL MODE Pg 15 *2nd Priority Mode
IF Flame is ON/Stays ON with solid RED Fault Light on then unplug Communication wire between Upper and Lower Boards which is the Blu/BL at Pin 14 (16 pin connector n Lower Board) Unplug/replug that 16 pin connector

Gas Flame ON & Red Light ON........communication issue between upper/lower boards
Red Light ON and GAS FAILS....New Gas Valve Train (the WHOLE assembly...no individual parts)
Also check the Diagnostic Mode Screen 4 (Stored Faults)----- Pg 51
And Screen 8 (Power Board Outputs) when ON Gas ---- Pg 52
