    Refrigerator problem
    Hi Guys
    We are fairly new to RVing so would really appreciate any help you can give.
    We have a 1992 Glendale C class RV. We recently unplugged the power source to take the RV for cleaning and upon return and reconnection of power I cannot get the Norcold refrigerator to recognize the A/C power source. Normally when I switch the fridge to auto the elec light illuminated telling me we are running on A/C power source. This is not happening DC will illuminate and when I switch to propane the propane light illuminates. We had it out at a campground 2 weeks ago and everything was working fine... Any suggestions? Thanks so much for any advise you can give

    Any suggestions?
    I know nothing about this so keep in mind that you ask for suggestions.

    I doubt that you have an AC or DC or propane refrigerator. It is probably a DC or propane refrigerator with the AC being converted to DC. AC to DC is a fairly easy thing to do. Just a few electrical diodes. Not true going from DC to AC.

    Do other AC powered appliances work?


    Trace the AC power line to the refrigerator. You will probably find some switch or electrical component not working.
    Of course the first thing to do would be to look for a blown fuse in the AC line.

    As stated I know nothing about this, so it is just a suggestion.
