Refrig. fans

(1/2) > >>

Tom and Pat Fudale:
On the Monterey with the Norcold fridge there are two fans on the backof the fridg.Does any one know where the Therostat or whatever cycles them. I can't seem to get them running when the weather is hot and they are needed most

George Harwell:
On my 03 Monterey with the single door refer I can hear it running when it gets above 85/90 degrees and it is all automatic. Nothing for me to do but listen to it running.

Keith Moffett Co-Admin:
Do you refer to the operation fan for the refrigeration unit or an auxilary fan for the chase vent?
I had previous MH's which had small 12V auxilary fan but it was activated by a switch not a thermostat.  I am preparing to install one on the Beaver and the supplied wiring allows only a short distance to the switch so it has to be close to the fridge in a cabinet.
Good luck
Keith

Tom and Pat Fudale:
I need to know from where these two fans are fed and where the heat sensor is that controls them so that I can rewire them and control them with a switch because they do not respond to changes in temperature as they should. I can't get any info from Monaco.

Karl Welhart:
The fans are wired to a thermal switch mounted next to the ice maker water control valve.  This switch turns on at a temps over 85 degrees.  Both fans are wired to come on at the same time.  Very simple to put a switch and override the automatic one.  If you are having a cooling problem, installing a manual swtich may NOT help.
