Hi everyone

[dub be good to me]

New member here.Thought i would say hello as i have been browsing this excellent website for a while.I am the proud owner of an 84 westy left hooker that I imported from germany a year ago.Having a bit of trouble with my fridge,cant seem to get it working on battery or mains. It is an electrolux three way one.Just wondered if i should be able to hear it working when it is switched on or are they silent. many thanks paul

Hi and welcome
Most fridges are silent - they rely on gas/liquid expansion to circulate as a result of a small heat source - a gas flame or electric element - have a look at this web page for more info

Hello and welcome.....agreed fridges are normaly silent.

on gas there will be an auto ignition that will click...click...click upon switching to "on" or "1"you must push and hold in the gas temp control , usually marked with a lightening bolt!.

12V will only be on when the engine is running..sometimes there are two switches for this , on the fridge and on the control panel

mains will be on when switch is at "0"
