Firestation, if you noticed my other reply, I believe I found where water was getting in. The fridge vent cover was falling apart and allowing rain in there. I think the mystery is solved.

It only took almost a year but I think I know what caused this. The fridge vent was falling and allowing water into the back of the fridge. Vent is replaced so will see if that solves this for good.

You pay for convenience. When you look at the exchange, most places will show they are filled with 15lbs of Propane. A refill is 20lbs. But it's a good deal if your tank is out of date as they'll...

If a 20lb just exchange the tank and check for a decent date on the tank you get. If larger tank then just get it wherever.

flybouy,
I know the difference on GFCI vs breaker. The GFCI was what was "tripping". Oddly enough, today after the fridge ran all night on gas, I can connect it to the trailer outlet and use...

A lighter trailer of that length probably could be towed by an suv with a wdh. The trailer you are considering weighs more than the 27' one I own. Some 23 ft trailers weigh less.
