2017 vibe 288rls fan sound

[fireman1969]

Pulled our new camper home yesterday and while hooked to the truck, heard a sound like a fan running from around the furnace area. Unhooked the camper from the truck and plunged into the house and still heard this running. The furnace and hot water heater lays under the bed on this model. What can this be ? Is this normal.

Check thermostat?

[fireman1969]

We did and it's off all three settings

[bob caldwell]

Battery fully charged? Might be the converter fan....

[fireman1969]

The camper is new we got it yesterday, camper is plugged in has been all night wife said it's still runny now

[bob caldwell]

Doesn't mean battery is good....Or charged.....Pull a cable off it or, turn battery disconnect off, if you have one, and see if noise quits.....These things set on lots without being hooked up

[fireman1969]

Thanks I'll give that a try

Have you thought about the refrigerator fan?? We have a 2015 Rockwood Signature and we had each of the refrigerator fans replaced! If it (refrig) and located near the furnace could be the problem?????? Furman Walter, Anderson, SC

It was the inverter for the refridgerator that I had to manually turn off in my 2016 Vibe. It is located in the front storage compartment.

On your 2016 vibe is
That normal to have to manually turn this off? I really don't know what it it this is a brand new unit just pulled it off the lot yesterday

[denisgr]

Our unit hands a 110v ac frige that has a dedicated inverter to run it off the batteries. When you plug into camp power you have to turn the inverter off. We didn't the first night and the inverter fan kept us awake.

Residential fridge?

[denisgr]

Yes, residential fridge.

[bob caldwell]

Might have to adjust temp setting...

[fireman1969]

Thanks I'll check all this being new hope it's something simple

[bob caldwell]

Did you get a packet with any manuals?...If not, find model number and Google how to adjust temp..

[fireman1969]

Ok thanks

[fireman1969]

Ok called the rv place where we got the unit, they state it's the inverter for the fridge. But when I plug the unit in shouldn't the inverter shut off. When I'm not running on the battery

[fireman1969]

Well found the issue it was the inverter but the button will allow it to be turned off

There is a manual switch on the invertor itself and then probably another on the unit control center. It needs to be on when not on a shoreline if you plan on keeping the fridge cool.
