Fridge Not Cooling
I have a 2014 3010 Sunseeker and the fridge is not cooling. Need any help you guys can offer. Leave in the morning on a trip. It's plugged in to 120 and it is on auto. Light is on in fridge but not cooling.
Thanks for any feedback.

Does the check light next to auto come on also? If so could be a fuse in the outside panel

How long have you had it plugged in? Some refers take a long time to get cold. I usually put a bag of ice in there to speed up the process.

Yes I usually check the freezer first since it gets colder quicker. It's been on for over an hour but will go out and check it soon. I guess I could just turn on the Propane and go from there.

Should take 6hrs or more to cool. Overnight is much better.

Yeah the Dometics take a long time to first cool down. Having a Norcold in my TT toyhauler which cools much faster, the first time I started the Dometic I though something was wrong with it.

Also, if you have the 4 door model check that the handles are not broken. It's a common problem and often not obvious unless you look closely. But it prevents the door from making a tight seal.

See if it cools in the propane mode. My refrigerator did this on our last trip. I had the unit in for warranty work on some electrical issues and they had unplugged the refrigerator. I took a shot and removed the cover outside and sure enough the dealer had not plugged the unit in. Once I plugged it back in, it worked in auto mode as designed.
