1210 Norcold frig
Hi, I have a 2015 3970 voltage with a 1210 Norcold frig. I notice in the last few weeks the frig was not cooling properly. Now the frig is not cooling at all. It seems to be working on 120 V power and propane but still not cooling. I have put my volt meter on the power connections and have power. Any suggestions

Have you smelled ammonia or seen any yellow powder in the exterior part of the refrigerator?

One thing to try, unplug the thermistor and see if it will start cooling. The thermistor is that little thing attached to very right side of the cooling fins inside the box. You can unplug it at the Canon plug that hangs behind the light. You'll know it is the correct one because the refrigerator light won't come on. The refrigerator should get cold if it's gonna get cold.

Dang it! Assuming you have checked the flame height and the electric elements all I can say is there is a place in Arkansas that builds and rebuilds these cooling units if you have a mind to tackle the job yourself.
No error codes showing I'm guessing.....

On my father in laws that was showing same symptoms, I located a small reset switch in the outside portion of the fridge. Pushed it and she fired up.

Just kinda of an oddball question...
Your rig is sitting somewhat level, correct? I mean, it's not parked on the side of a hill, or on a steep driveway, correct?
Just checking...

I'm having the same exact issue. Mine is on its second cooling unit now, the first one sprung a leak. A couple of weeks ago I turned it off for a day and turned it back on. It came back to life.... for a couple of weeks and now it's dead again. After many hours of trouble shooting all I can figure is that it has an internal blockage.
