I live in Florida and did not feel the need to winterize my RV as we don't get all that cold but I did do a few things to minimize the electrical draw on the house by turning off my 1200LRIM Norcold unit and propping the doors open. This was done after using it last (1st week of December).
So...I am getting ready to use the RV this coming week and I start to look things over including getting the fridge back up and running but the unit will not stay on more than 5-10 seconds before shutting off. After it shuts off I have to hit the 12V on/off button by the steps to reset the circuit in order to try again. Keep in mind I have tried to start the unit on LP only (did not work), AC only (did not work). When set to AU (automatic) I can see/hear it cycling through the AC/LP/DC before it shuts itself off.
I have verified 120VAC at the plug receptacle and have tested that the LP Gas stove and water heater are working fine.
Any advice would be appreciated. Hoping to figure this out on my own before I take it to Camping World down the highway for an expensive easy repair.
