Refrigerator Issue

Hi folks.

My wife and I have a Jayco Feather Select parked in a campground with full hookups. Our refrigerator is running on LP gas, for some reason. There's an automatic setting, but it's still using LP. Anyone have any ideas about this?

  • And that is why the forums is invaluable ....lots of experience here.
  • Sonny, you did check the CG box polarity and do have surge protection, correct?
  • It's not seeing 120VAC for some reason.
    Take the outside panel off behind the fridge and check the outlet.
    If the outlet is dead then you nay have a tripped GFCI outlet inside at the bathroom or someplace else. Or it could have popped a breaker.
    If the fridge is popping a GFCI, it will need its heater element replaced even though it works fine. In that case it has shorted to the chassis and failed.
