    2022 Nor Cold on/off switch not working in 2022 310GK

    I just returned from a trip, emptied the Nor Cold fridge and pushed the on/off button to turn off.
    The switch made what felt like an odd feeling of collapsing and did not turn off the fridge.
    I tried pushing in and holding from many seconds and still no turn off.
    My fear now is if somehow I get the possibly broken switch to turn off, I may not get it to turn back on. I checked the inside fuse panel and sadly did not see a fuse or breaker dedicated to the fridge.
    I have no problem doing a work around by pulling a fuse as long as it is stuck on, ON. I could simply replace fuse to turn on before a trip.
    If I take the outside back cover of the fridge off, which fuse should I pull to safely turn off the power when it is on 110 volt operation?

    Thanks

    I suspect that that switch doesn’t really turn the fridge on and off directly. More likely it is an input to a control system. So. Manipulating power to the unit might not work no matter how the switch is stuck. But, having said that it’s worth a try. My Norcold is a propane / electric model and plugs into a receptacle behind the fridge that you can access from the vent cover outside.

    Thanks for the response.
    I took the outside cover off and unplugged it from 110.
    Now inside there is a beeping with a no AC message.
    I unplugged the entire trailer and still the beeping with message.
    A fan inside the fridge continues to run.
    I will check after some hours to see if fridge warms inside. I assume it will warm since there is no LP or 110 power connected.
    All this for a flimsy failed on/off panel switch that looks hard to get at.

    Yes. Perhaps a new door.
