I pulled out my Norcold refrigerator to replace a vent fan on the back. I tested out everything prior to slidong it back into its opening and things seemed to work fine.
After slidong it back in place i couldnt get it to turn on, so I started checking things..
No 120 volt power hooked, just 12 volt.
Where power goes to the frig I only got 5.7 volts. I disconected the the 12 volt power feed and checked power at the feed without being hooked up to the frig. I got 11 volts. At the battery I got 13 volts.
Looks to me like I have two different problems. First the power drop from the battery to where it feeds the frig. I need to trouble shoot that, but why the heck am I getting a 5.7 volt reading when hooked up to the frig? Not sure I know where to start. I disconnected the connection to the eybrow but didnt seem to make any difference.
HELP!!!!!
Sorry but I gave some bad info on my oroginal post. If I disconnect the plug on the board that feeds the eybrow ( temp control, off/on switch etc) I get a voltage of 11 volts where the 12 volt power connects to the frig. So, I assume there is a problem with the eyebrow. Why does it give me a voltage reading of 5.7 volts at the power connection to the frig with the eyebrow hooked up but 11 volts with the eyebrow disconnected? Any ideas would be welcome.
