Is the fridge not just plugged into an outlet right there in the outside compartment?
Aha! This was the missing part of the puzzle. I found an outlet almost hidden in the corner, around the fiberglass insulation. Fridge is now plugged in.
Thank you all for your help on this!
THAT is the reason you kept getting the 'CHECK' light
When fridge control is in 'Auto' it will run on AC when you are plugged in to Shore Power (30A trailer power cord)
BUT if no AC is available (fridge power cord not plugged into outlet) then it will swap to Propane.
Check light is a FAULT indicating that the propane flame did NOT light off====no propane valved in, propane valved in but hasn't got to fridge burner (might need to try 3-4 attempts).
12V DC is required for fridge controls ---upper panel, control module/circuit board, and for AC/Propane functions
Post Brand & Model of fridge for specific info
