I have a new to me trailer that I have used a handfull of times. This last time I used it everything was froze in the fridge. It was running on 110V and it has a seperate freezer area. Any ideas what to check for? I believe it is a norcold 7 years old

Can't you turn the thermostat down on the fridge. Mine is only set to 2 if I go to high it will freeze everything...Mine is a 2.7cuft w/freezer with a range of 1 to 4 on the switch.

I just replaced mine. It's a norcold also. When the other died it was 9yrs old and it just wouldn't cool...I had a Rv guy check mine out. Good Luck..There not cheap... You can check out the Norcold website for trouble shooting...

I find that the colder it is outside, the better the fridge works. I have the 3.0 size and it has temp guages from 1-5. I usually leave it on 5, but if it's 40 degrees or below at night, I have to adjust it down. Plus the longer the trip and the longer the fridge is on, the colder it will get. I prefer to keep lettuce in a cooler as it freezes quite easily

My Dometic doesn't have a dial or thermostat, per se, but there is a button on outside front that adjusts the temp. Maybe that got bumped up higher than before.
