In March 2013 I installed a new Vitrifrigo 12V DC/ 110V AC, mechanical thermostat, refrigerator. I usually run it on AC when shore power is available. Today I went to check on the boat in it's slip and the fridge was not running, fortunately I only had a few water and soft drinks in there. I checked the breakers all seemed ok I tried it on DC and it started running. Turned the unit off with the thermostat control and tried it on AC again, it still wouldn't run, on AC. The unit is screwed into its recess so I couldn't reach the back to check the condition of the wiring or outlet it runs off of, but, other appliances on the same (I believe) circuit are running. I checked the trouble shooting page of the fridge's manual and it mentions "check the fuse in the electronic control unit has not blown".
I plan to go to the boat tomorrow to unscrew and pull the unit out of it's recess. I'll check the 110 connections and be sure power is available at the outlet and that the "electronic control unit fuse" is OK.
Have any Vitrifrigo owners had this or a similar problem with their units?
Any one else have any suggestions? It does run on DC.
The unit has worked fine until this, I hope tomorrow I will find the cause.
Thanks for any experiences or suggestions.
