gmayfield60 Report post Posted May 25, 2014 A non-electrician (I have learned my lesson) moved our 30A shore connector and wired it incorrectly. So far, the microwave is fried and the fridge only works on gas. Does anyone know if there is some kind of relay or "fuse" on the electrical part of the gas fridge that could have "tripped" ??? I did hire an electrician and he fixed it. All else seems to be okay, When this first happened is when it fried to microwave and fridge, then I plugged in our surge protector and that is now fried but it seems to have saved the air conditioner.

wolfe10 Report post Posted May 25, 2014 gmayfield, Welcome to the FMCA Forum. Yes, wiring a 30 amp 240 will "let a lot of smoke out". The refrigerator requires 12 VDC to operate the PC board-- whether on gas or 120 VAC. It is not uncommon for 240 to also take out the converter (which takes 120 VAC and produces 12 VDC to charge the batteries) which could lead to discharged batteries. So, start by verifying that you have 12+ VDC to the back of the refrigerator. Does the control panel for the refrigerator light up? Does the refrigerator operate on propane? If yes to the two above, with shore power disconnected, check the 120 VAC fuse on the refrigerator PC board. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
