Need to pull the frig in my Prowler so let me get this straight. The frig power is 120 VAC. There is an inverter for converting 12 VDC to 120 VAC when off shore power. Is that right? If so, I too would like to know where the inverter is located.

The fridge accepts the dual power supply. No seperate inverter, its all in the fridge.

Most likely the ac/dc internal switch in the fridge has gone bad. I hadthe same issue and it was a $125ish part to replace excluding labor.

Hey Captain ~ Have you found any loose wires going to your fridge yet??? It's been a while since we've heard any updates from you... I hope you figure it out soon, because I don't want to go another summer on your boat with no cold beer!!!

I personally think that the whole issue started shortly after you wedged that oversize fridge in your cabin... You probably unintentionally crimped some wires together and caused a short when you shoved it in there last year... not to mention the extra weight of all that beer!

Thats because the sonic guys actually bring women with them, and need drinks for them.
