DT has a Norcold 726 DE that is running fine but needs a new door gasket (Part # 613507 if anyone know where to buy one).

This frigde is original and dual voltage 12/120v however so was it only running on 12v and draining the batteries really fast so I took a look at the electrical wireing.

Since Big green is pretty empty on the inside it is easy to follow the original harness and it has a seperate wiring for the fridge and vacuum cleaner but I was not able to find it on DT.

So back to the interior wiring diagrams for the 1973-74 and sure enough, if you did order the vacuum cleaner you would also get 120v for the fridge, DT did not have the vacuum option and did not get 120 for the fridge..

Anyways under the fridge I found the 120 to 12v converter and relays, and nicely hidden away and seald the 120v hookup, well I just had to try it so I made a temperary connection and turned the power on.
Badabing !! the relay did clik and the fridge start right up !
So the unused 120v circuit works as a charm on a fridge that has been draining batteries for over 40 years, now I will just make a permanent connection and enjoy the rest of the day Smile

1973 23' # 1848 Sky Blue Glacier called Baby Blue and a 1973 26'-3 # 1460 Parrot green Seqouia Known as the Big Green, And sold my 1973 26'-2 # 581 White Canyon lands under the name Dobbelt trøbbel in Norway
