The freezer in my 2024 Jayco Eagle's Everchill 12V fridge works perfectly, but I'm tackling the non-cooling fridge section this Saturday — what should I check first? The Everchill 12V four-door refrigerator/freezer unit has developed what seems to be a common problem - the freezer compartment is working perfectly and maintaining proper temperatures, but the refrigerator section has completely stopped cooling.

I've verified that the internal fan is running normally, so it's not a power issue. The unit gets power, the controls light up, and I can hear it cycling on and off as expected. However, despite the fan running and the freezer working fine, the fridge compartment just won't get cold anymore. This seems like it happened suddenly rather than gradually losing cooling capacity.

I've read online that this is a known issue with these Everchill units, but I'm not sure what specifically causes the freezer to work while the fridge fails. What are the most likely culprits when you have this exact symptom pattern, and what should I check first to diagnose whether it's something I can fix myself or if I need to call for warranty service? …more

Looked everywhere for answers on my Whirlpool residential refrigerator cycling every 30 minutes—my neighbor says it's normal, RV dealer says it's broken, YouTube says something else entirely. The ambient temperature here is around 65°F, and I have both the fridge and freezer set to the 3rd snowflake setting.

I haven't timed it exactly with a stopwatch, but I keep noticing it kicking on again after what feels like a short time. I'm concerned this frequent cycling might be a sign of a problem or could lead to premature failure. I try to keep the vents clean when I can access them. Should I be worried about this 30-minute cycle pattern, or is this within normal range for an RV refrigerator in these conditions? …more

My RV dealer insists I need to replace my entire 2025 Cedar Creek 360RL refrigerator just because the shelves slide during travel, but that seems like overkill. Even with an empty fridge, the glass shelves keep moving forward and end up pressed against the doors whenever we're driving. I'm concerned this could lead to broken glass or damage to the door seals.

I'm hesitant to try any fixes that might make the shelves permanently stuck or difficult to remove for cleaning. What are some safe, proven methods to secure refrigerator shelves during travel while still allowing easy removal when needed? I don't want to make the problem worse or void any warranties on this new RV. …more

According to the moisture buildup around my residential fridge door seals after just two weeks of storage, I'm clearly doing something wrong.

With my old propane fridge, I religiously propped that door open during storage like every RV manual commanded. But now that I've got this "house fridge" - do I treat it like a regular home refrigerator and keep it closed, or do I stick with my old RV habits and prop it open? I'm probably overthinking this, but the last thing I want is to open it up next season and get knocked over by some horrific smell that could wake the dead. What's the right move here for preventing mold and keeping things fresh during long-term storage? …more

After storing my RV in freezing Wisconsin temps all winter, I just realized our Florida trip starts next month and my lithium batteries got zero cold weather prep! Got my RV winterized, but completely spaced on what to do with my lithium batteries during Wisconsin's lovely sub-zero season.

I know lithium batteries are supposedly the bee's knees compared to lead-acid, but I'm pretty sure letting them freeze solid in my garage isn't part of their charm. Should I be storing them somewhere warmer? What about charge levels - do I top them off or run them down? And please tell me I don't have to babysit them all winter long!

Could use some advice specific to RV lithium battery storage, since I didn't mention the specific battery type or RV details in my original post. …more
