Norcold refrigerator question

If I have the frig on auto , shouldn't it switch back and forth from electric to propane? When we are traveling without generator running lights flash. I then have to switch to gas fro auto. This seems to have just started recently. 2015 Baystar. Thanks

In 'AUTO' it should swap to GAS when 120V AC power is lost and then swap back to AC when 120V AC power is restored.......

Which MODEL do you have?

Which lights flash?

I have a 2015 Baystar with Norcold fridge. In auto mode it works as Old-biscuit describes above.

What lights are flashing.......????

Depending on which ones and how they flash it could be an 'error' code

Check Pg. 11 of this manual for error codes

It was evidently air in the gas line. I had to switch it has several times to get it ignited, probably didn't allow enough time to fire it up. Thanks for help!
