Fridge not working 270 Fiesta Vee

Skipper

Folks I've a problem with my Tundra T22AC fridge not working. It's throwing the fuse out at the main control panel but when I pull the fridge out and check the connections they all appear to be OK. The switch is ON at the main control panel below but nothing works. Anyone with any ideas?

Skipper

Not quite sure what you mean by unplugging and plugging back into the wall?

Is this a new fridge - or did it work in the past?  What is the current rating of the fridge. It is possible the start up current (which lasts a few seconds when the compressor switches on) could be higher than the breaker rating.  If that's not it, you could have a short in the control board.

It worked in the past but we've just purchased the boat this year from a good friend who assures me it was working. I've checked all the connections and they seem to be fine...

Does it have a 12V mode?  It's either the start up current, or there's a short somewhere.

Can you pull it and plug it in somewhere else (home, etc.) to see if you can replicate the trip. If you can't replicate it, it means there's something wrong with the breaker or feeder cable.

Yea think I'll give that a go, cheers. Will let you know how I get on!
