1. I was sitting in the kitchen eating lunch and all of the sudden i hear a high speed fan come on i had no idea what it was.
since my back was to the fridge i decided to go out side and pull off the cover and look around with a flashlight and mirror, low and behold it has two fans up near the top. MAN what a great idea, i had put em on my fiver, but this blew me away seeing them alreadythere. this is my first norcold fridge .

2. any body have an idea what the wire is that hangs down near the left rear hyd lift actuator, its green and black wires and says HOUSE, the two wires emerge from a harness and are just hanging there, on the first coach we pdi's it had the same thing and the techs had no idea what it went to?

3. in the inverter bay, it says no combustibles... so what do yall put in there or does it stay empty? its a great place for oil and winder washer juice.

The only thing I have in that bay on my RV is the permanently attached 50 ft of RV electrical cord. I have carried distilled water there for the batteries. But other than that not much because I need to move it when I want to plug into shore power.

Both Dometic and Norcold have fans on the larger models

You can add 'em to the smaller ones

This is what your fans look like from above they are controlled by a heat thermistor that will place them on and off during a warm day and fans may not run on a cool day.
If you fine your box temperatures going up, freezer will be ok, you will be having problems with your fans not coming on.
The wire you may have to trace out, some times you may find fine print on wires to indicate what they are for. The wire is next to your jack check other jacks to see if they have same wire, it could be wire that would come off top of jack to indicate jack down alarm switch.
Make sure they are not alive, they look heavy enough to carry 110 volts so be careful.
