Spent the week at the King of the Hammers and on day 3-4 (Fourdayoff) Jim noticed the fridge had lost power? In a panic i went down stars and verified the circuit breaker was not tripped and it was powered up :facepalm: so I went to the fridge and verified power going into the controller after the Fridge Defender. Power was present. Yikes im now getting concerned. Played with the fridge defend and shut it off and powered back up. Power was the same and still available. At this point the fridge was now powered up and working normal? I wish I had just turned the fridge off and back on at the face plate inside.
It has worked flawlessly since and has cycled between gas and electric AC probably a dozen times. So now that I'm spooked of it what should I do. I'm guessing it had to be the fridge controller but not 100% sure. I'd rather make a positive maintenance action rather than let it strand me down the road. Any input would be appreciated if anyone else has seen this problem prior and has a resolution, other wise I'll order a new controller?
Note; this is a year old Amish cooling unit with new AC heating elements

Hey Scott, might check with partsfortechs , and NW rv supply. My fridge defend will shut my fridge down on over heat, but it will not start back by itself. The fridge defend guy Paul says bad eyebrow board. Mine is not available new, dinosaur rebuilds them I think.
Scott, I'm with Bruce on the eyebrow....Had an issue with mine same scenario cycling between gas and electrical especially in cold weather. Try exercising the button for auto and gas with fridge off...that cured mine...oh geeeezzzz I just jinks myself.

So I was looking on their site and thought they listed the new eyebrow lights at dinosaur? I did verify it had power out of Paul's box to it so it should have been powered up with power light illuminated. I'll get the correct controller number, looks like there is two possible and just order a new one if no one has a suggestion. Was kinda wonky having power to it but not running?
So it may of just cycled from electric to gas when this all happened. All the lights were out on the fridge. Dang I wish I could go back and just cycle the power button, but I thought for sure it was indicating correct and had no power, but I did verify it had power to the fridge controller (black box)
