Anyone know why my camper fridge freezes at night (running propane)? It doesn't matter if the setting is high or low. Daytime travel on propane is not a problem.
Thanks, Jim

Have you seen the possible answers Old Crow posted to your same question here -
Did any of these work out for you?

I had to turn down the flame on my old Norcold every night or it would freeze. I fixed it by buying a compressor fridge for my new camper ;-)

I had a lot of trouble with my Eagle fridge - so finicky - too warm or too cold, constantly adjusting it. Finally did what bilker did, got a compressor fridge - so much nicer!

So, I haven't heard of a compressor fridge. What is that?

Lobo, it's electric only. Just like your home refer. Uses AC/DC.

FWC has a video explaining the different refrigerators. It might give you some insight.

Down the page a little.

Lobo,
There have been several posts comparing the 3-way that uses propane and the compressor fridge. There was a rather lengthy one on FWC in 2015 and if you go to All Terrain, scroll down 10-15 posts and you will find 3 pages.
