Edd, yes it should make a little noise.  Is it air cooled or water cooled? What 
make?

Listers,

After some work, I was able to get the wiring reconnected to the refrigerator 
on the Enterprise. The thermostat now lights up and I see different LEDs go on 
and off, though nobody, including the manufacturer, knows what the lights mean 
anymore.

So here are some questions, cause I’m not feeling the cold-plate get cold after 
a while. . .

1. Does it need a warm-up time to get going?
2. Should it be making noise (mine is silent both inside the chest and at the 
“guts” in the aft cabin)? I’m worried that the compressor motor is seized.
3. Is it worth getting a marine refrigeration guy out there to check it out or 
am I really just better off ripping the whole thing out and starting fresh?



All the best,

Edd

Hi Edd,
 You should hear the compressor shortly after you power up.  It's not
hard to hear.  If your unit is Frigiboat, I have a tag on my unit that
tells me what the LEDs mean.  Let me know and I will get you the info if it
is Frigiboat.  I would spend a little time diagnosing.  It may just be low
on refrigerant.  Also, if you short the thermostat out, the compressor
should start.  If it does start, then there is something wrong with the
thermostat.
