Recently purchased 2008 Keystone Hornet no warranty as I bought privately. Think I jinxed myself as I just posted about whether I should purchase extended warranty for 4 years $1300. Well today went out to seasonal site and frig which has been running great - all of a sudden is running to cold so I adjusted and moved from 2-1 setting. Well within hours everytime I opened frig it would start flashing and temp was getting warmer. No code is displayed just 6 (number) of flashes! Eventually the light went out and I then turned the frig off.
I am hoping on hope that I can get some options to check out before calling in some big buck repair service.
If you are so kind to respond please be specific with problem solution solvers as I am not an RV mechanic!
Thanks so much!

In order to get specific answers, we need specific details:
-What exactly is the make and model of the fridge?
-Was it on AC or LP?

Norcold - I had it running on AC
I tried to switch over to LP and it still flashed. When I looked in manual all it said was call a service tech.

You're getting close. Look inside the door and there will be a sticker with the model number. Norcold is the manufacturer (make) and there should be a number on that sticker inside the door.

Also, there was a recall on some Norcold model refrigerators. You have to take the vent off of the back (outside rv) and see if there is a little black box that is plugged into the circuit board.

Visit the Norcold web site to see the instructions on how to determine model and serial numbers. Give them a call with that information and see if you specific refrigerator is on recall and has been fixed. If not, get-r-done immediately.

Unfortunately I am over a hour away from seasonal site and won't be able to get out there till next weekend. Will get back to you. Thanks for your interest!

Using your make and model refrigerator, do a search for the service manual. When located, it will have a code section that tells you what the 6 flashes mean and possible remedies.
