Norcold 3 way frig not cooling

IF you heard 'gurgling' type noise...cooling unit has blockage

They is no 'band-aid' fix.......letting ammonia settle---it was already settled before you turned it on.
Taking fridge out, turning it up side down, rolling it up/down the street..won't do anything for a blockage in cooling unit.
The blockage is hard as a rock, stuck to the inside of tubing (think plaque of the arteries) and is PERMANENT.

The ONLY fix for blockage in cooling unit is replacement of cooling unit or new fridge

Is this fridge in your 2013 Lance?----1 year warranty :M

Got it working, after blowing it out, I remembered I had just had the camper washed 2 days ago and maybe some water got into the coils or electrical components or maybe that wasn't it at all. It's working and I'm not positive why but it's time to go camping so I am checking out right now. Thanks for your replies.

What did you hear "running". Absorption fridges have no moving parts and generally do not make any sound at all.

Thanks Sleepy, it is parked on a level slab in my rv garage and the next thing I'm doing after I blow the back out with a little compressed air is to drive it around a little bit.

Has it been parked level

If not you probably have a vapor lock

DO NOT GO TO A SERVICE CENTER YET

Turn off your fridge for 2 days

Drive around which will allow the ammonia to settle

There are no short cuts... 2 days! drive around

After 48 hours and several differnt trips around the area in your camper... make sure it is level and then turn the fridge back on



Now, you can go to a dealer...who might tell you that they have to do a $1200 fix then the dealer parks it out back, level and off... then drives it around a bit to shake it up!

Good luck

If it doesn't work... you can still change out the board.
