Atwood Refrigerator - Electric Mode Failure?

[RetiredVagabond]

I've had my Reflection 293 RES for almost four months and the refrigerator has worked great, both on electric and propane gas. Earlier this week I noticed the refrigerator was warming up. Sure enough the light was on but it wasn't running. I forced it to use gas and it worked, but the electric still doesn't seem to be working. I have tested a couple of times after a camp move, but no luck. Is there something I can do or should I make arrangements to bring it in? If so whom should I contact?

Thanks
Gary

Contact your selling dealer for an appointment.

They will test it and get the repair authorization from either GD or the refer manufacturer.

Call GD cust support or your dealer. Mine is on the blink too. Currently at a GD dealer for that and a gas leak. I'll let you know what they find.

Has anybody pursued this issue? We are on a four month trip and two days into it, the reefer stopped working on electric. When we got into an RV park, we switched over to electric. I had a thermometer in the reefer, and the temperature creeped up to 65 degrees over night. There were no error codes. We had to throw away over $200 in groceries. We switched back to gas, and the unit cooled back down to 34 degrees. We replaced all the food, and we'll be using gas until we get home or somebody comes up with a quick fix for the refrigerator problems.

We just picked up our Reflection 303 not long ago and our fridge failed while on electric our first trip. Same thing, wasted groceries. It's with the dealer now and was told it will be fixed this week. They had to order a part. Not sure what part it needed but will share when I learn this week.

Usually if a fridge won't cool on electric, but does OK on gas, it is the circuit board as the issue. Several discussions on other forums always pointed to the same thing, the circuit board. Once that was replaced, worked just fine.

Hi everyone

I will make sure Jerry McCarthy, VP of Customer Service, sees these posts. (Although knowing Jerry, I'm sure he is already on top of it).

Thanks for the posts and sorry about the refer issues. We will definitely look into it.

The tech working on mine called yesterday and said the fridge was working as designed. He also said they are running it in gas mode. I told him it has to be an intermittent problem when running on AC mode.

Going to call them first thing this morning to talk about replacing the circuit board.

I have the norcold 12cuft. Had a gas issue,but also had a furnace gas issue. Thinking I may have a regulator problem on my 379.
