Hi and thank you to whoever reads this,
I'm back on the forum today after a hiatus. I have no recall as to where I've been, life is passing by like a mighty river. But I'm getting the Beast, as I call it, ready to travel back home to NY this summer. So - I've updated my older topic about a new LP gas tank, that's a separate post from this one, and I have this new question:
My original Norcold does not run on the 120V A/C when the generator is running, due to problems many of you have described, that the generator does not provide stable enough Hz output (as this layman would say it). And in this heat, I have the generator running even while driving to power the A/C.
It's been recommended on several topics that a very good solution is to just run the refrigerator only on 12V D/C, which is what I want to do. But none of the topics I've read describe how to disconnect the refrigerator from 120V A/C in my case, because I do not have a regular A/C plug coming out of the refrigerator into a regular 120V A/C outlet. I've looked in the cabinet area under the refrigerator and there's only the vacuum plug into an outlet. I've looked behind the vent under the refrigerator and only see a main power cord coming down from the refrigerator into two boxes, one being labeled a transformer, the other box is not labeled. I also looked where the water heater is plugged in and it's only the water heater plugged into that outlet.
I'm wondering if the wiring behind the vent under the refrigerator is the place to disconnect it from 120V A/C, and if so how, and if so, can I with novice electrical skills do the job; there aint much room in there to work, so God willing, it's an easy task.
Anyone know which connectors or wires to dork with to disconnect the refrigerator from 120V A/C please?
Thank you.
david
