Hello everyone, we are in the process of a total overhaul of our Sunline Solaris. The time has come to put the fridge back in and we are having a doozy of a time.
The fridge itself worked briefly when we first purchased the trailer, but shortly after the first time we turned it on it would no longer function. We decided to table the issue until later down the road when it was time to re-install it.. Fast-forward and the time has come. We're really hoping we can get it running as it would save us a substantial chunk of change.
The fridge model is:
1994/1995 Dometic RM 2622
Right now we are in the process of wiring up and testing the fridge. My partner just went out to get a voltage tester so that we can test the 12v wires to the lower control board to see if that is still getting electricity. I will continue to update as we delve further into this and learn more about what's going on.. But for now we have a big mystery on our hands and I was hoping someone here might recognize what we've found!!
The mysterious fuse/wire: There seems to be useless pigtails running to a fuse receptacle one from the hot, one from the neutral. However it is tied into the same wires that run to the refrigerator that are already tied directly to a hot and neutral. It seems like it was there from the factory. And as we figured, when we put a fuse in, no matter what size, it pops.. Because it's basically just electricity going in a loop for no reason.
The picture is from inside of the fridge box. The wire runs out from the left side and goes over the wheel well, it's about 2ft long and ends in a fuse.
Please let me know if you guys need more pictures. Hopefully someone can help us sort this out! It's super strange.
