Fridge

My fridge would not get cold on ground power, but when I put it back on LP it worked fine. I was told it may be the electric probe. Anyone know where this probe is located. 2010 GT 378.

I had it on LP for about 3 hours prior than switched over. The freezer got cold. But when I changed over the temp went form 40 up to around 60.

You prolly opened the freezer and fridge doors a coupla times and that's all it took to warm the fridge to 60. It takes about 6-8 hrs for the freezer\fridge to get down to operating temps on elec. Try it again and give it more time.

Check out refrigerator repair on YouTube. It has a lot of repair tips.
How to pull an fridge.
I would first check to see if the heating element is good.
The the control module
Good luck and let us know it turns out.

Sounds good. I will take it out in a few weeks. I will leave it on over night and see how it works out. Thanks.
