Atwood fridge issues
Getting ready to get the camper out and trying to get the fridge to start. When I power it up, the check, gas, and ac light all stay on. I've checked fuses, but can't find anything. I've searched, but couldn't find anything. Be easy, newbie. Thank is advance

I'm not aware of any "reset" on the Atwood refers, but I would unplug the A/C and disconnect the battery(s) for a few minutes.
After that, come back and post what happens.

Thank you both for speedy replies. I've tried unplugging and taking power away from the camper.

If you go to the Atwood mobile products website, you can navigate to the He refer and on the right side of the page will be a link for the owners manual in PDF form.
I looked real quick and it has a troubleshooting section. If I read right you may have a bad fuse on the control board. If you take the lower vent cover off, the control panel should be on the left side under a plastic cover.

Unlike household refers, RV refers don't have a compressor. If you want to know if the fridge is working, go back out to the vent you took off, and feel the flue on the right side. It will be HOT so be careful. RV refers use heat to cool the insides.
