Norcold Power board noise

Question

I recently installed a norcold power board #632168001 to fix a problem i was having with the refrigerator shutting down on lp when the sparker stopped. The replacement board fixed the problem and the fridge works fine now but there is a buzzing noise from the board that wasn't there on the old one. Is this normal for these new boards?

Probably one of the 'coils' (black boxes) on the circuit board

Remove cover.turn fridge back on and lightly touch each one with finger tip to feel which one is buzzing

That is an OLD style circuit board and has probably been sitting on store shelf/supply bin for long time

Shouldn't be a real issue as many electronic devices BUZZ

I would call the place you got it from and ask if it should buzz.  None of our replacement boards make any noise.

I did email adventurer.net and Norcold and haven’t heard anything back yet. Everything works so I’m not too concerned. But I am taking my old board with me when we are out this week just in case.
