⚠️ What's wrong

On certain travel trailers, motor homes, and fifth wheel campers equipped with norcold refrigerator cooling units, model numbers N841, N821, N641, and N621. These refrigerators CAN experience a cooling system leak caused by operation in the AC electric mode. If a leak occurs, the cooling performance of the refrigerator will deteriorate, requiring immediate replacement of the cooling unit.
