    Inside Refrigerator Fan install Question

    I am in the process of installing a Dutchaire fan on the cooling fins inside the refrigerator. I have a 2018 Reflection 312BHTS and I have run the wires through the drain hole. My question is where can I pick up a constant 12V supply.? The wires I picked seem to be on a switch. The back of fridge is pictured.Click image for larger version.

    Shane - I cant help you but I see you have no replies. Try moving your question to the General / Appliances. Lots of fridge discussions there and lots of followers. Just my 0.02

    Same trailer, same fridge, same mod, different fan. I wired to the white blocks in the lower right of your first pic. I can’t remember exactly which one, but it is marked with a “+”. Confirmed with my multimeter that it was always on. My fan has a switch. Fridge does not need to be on to run the fan. I will try to get a photo later today with the exact connection point.

    I got mine from this location. A bit hard to get the small wire under the other one but worked fine for me.

    Yep. That is same as mine. You can see the “+” stamped just above it.

    For "inside" the fridge... I simply put the Camco battery-operated fan. Works great.

    Ditto on this. I also use rechargeable “D” batteries, and have a spare set on hand. When one set dies, I just switch them out and throw the original set on the charger.
