- In this video i will show you how to skip the dealer and get your Norcold fridge out of lock out mode. Was your fridge working then stopped? Was it blinking green 5 times? Have you tried everything and still nothing? Then watch how easy it to is to reset system and skip expensive dealer prices.
Thank you very much. This works. I almost spent 600 on a new fridge. You are a smart man
I almost did the same that’s why I took the time to figure it out. I’m glad it has helped.
You just save me money & time, T-bones, and scallop
That’s amazing.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for sharing this.... going to try this tomorrow on my fridge
I have a 2004 Four Winds Chateau Citation. Just got it and glad to find this video. Thanks for sharing, going to try in the morning light.
Did it work?
Thank you very much. I thought I needed to take it to the dealer.
❤ Thanks so much for this straight forward video. It definitely helped me reset my refrigerator. Now I can see if it cools 🥶
Just like ya said. Thanks much my friend! I do want to add that the on switch must be turned on to do this i found. Once i squared that away all good
Gracias tu video me ayudo a solucionar el problema con mi RV
Glad to hear it has worked
It also worked for me. Thank you 🙏
I think I'll just rig up a momentary switch while I'm in there and put it somewhere easily accessible.
Thank you very mucho
Worked, thank you!
Just did this and light stopped blinking. Fingers crossed it stays good
That's great but what cause the fridge to lock out
Lots of things can create a lock out. One of the main reasons is coolant not flowing in fridge. Wich can be cause by coolant being to cold, trailer being off level.
Hello, Thanks so much for Your video,We have the same problem but We don't understand exactly where to connect the cable after seeing Your video 100 times because our English!Do You connect the blue and the ground together? or just the second square? where there's no cable in?
Second square where there is no wire and jump to ground terminal little green screw.
Thank you for this video you just saved me a ton of money
Your welcome glad it helped
Thank you so very much!!!!! U r awesome!!!!
I’m gladding I could help even just one person. I was very frustrated trying to Decipher the web of what to do so I tried to make an easy to follow video
Great video, thanks! When you put it in Auto mode and hold the jumper in place to reset, is it ok to be plugged in to ac? Or is it better to just use battery power and get it started on gas? thanks
I have tried on both either works. I think it’s better on a/c though.
@@Shank.exploration thanks for the reply! Subscribed to your channel. 👍🏼
I have a Norcold N811L. It only has a single row on that plug. Do you know what the diagram calls it so i can find the correct pin on my fridge? The second pin has a wire connected to it on mine.
Unfortunately no i do not have diagram of what the pin is called
@@Shank.exploration I found a page that talked about it. It is one of the pins in the upper right corner plug on my fridge. So, I was able to get it to reset. I had trouble connecting to the plug, but got it to work.
@@builditgarage fantastic to hear
@@Shank.exploration Thanks for the video to get me on the right path.
Will this work if I have that green light flashing one every 3 seconds as a temp sensor fault?
You could try but most likely will need to buy an replace the temp sensor
Everytime i do this it blows that five amp fuse. Is there something im doing wrong?
Your doing pin 2 to ground and not any other pins?
I have a GB 98' my lights were flashing and I started fooling around and I shorted out somewhere. It was flashing but still getting cold all the way to freezing. Then I must have tripped the wrong wire and the inside light went out + no more flashing green. I ordered a new board in which nothing happened. Am I missing a fuse somewhere under drivers side?
Sorry for such late response. I unfortunately do not know of any other fuses besides one on main breaker panel or in back of fridge.
Did you ground pin 2 with both power sources connnected or power disconnected?
Power connected
Sure wish you would of located pin 2 better for us to see the exact wire. It's unfortunate you didn't do a better job of that.
I’m sorry you feel this way.
At 1:55 in video it shows pin 2 and explains how it’s top row and second over from the left.
Unfortunately without factory wiring diagrams there is no other way to show this.
Also pin 2 is a pin not a wire. PIN 2
What causes lockout mode?
Lock out mode can be caused by a few different things. The main cause is the sensor doesn’t sense the flow of coolant in the system. Can be anything from to cold outside trailer being off level. Fridge being on during transit.
@@Shank.exploration thank you!
@@Shank.explorationhey boss I drove my 2007 Chevy four winds with the fridge on and I’ve had the 5 blinking on light issue. I was able to jump it and get it to work but when I come back it’s blinking again. The freezer seemed to get cold overnight but the fridge doesn’t. I’ve leveled it, cleaned the vents, and made sure my propane/ electrical hookup was good . Should I pull the 12v plug in the motherboard to reset it?
Pulled 5amp fuse and reinstalled, fridge started and has been running since (3 hrs).
@sarahconoway2158 I think I did the same as you, did you resolve the issue?
What is pin hole 2 what color wire
Pin 2 has no wires in it. It’s an open whole in plug
what if it flashes 6 times
Norcold Fault Codes LI OP, O, or 6 flashes (potential fire hazard!) Is your refrigerator doing one of the following? These codes appear when either your high temperature limit switch has been tripped or there has been a break in the connection at LIMIT IN and LIMIT OUT on the rear power board.
I have an older model and not the same plug.
Sorry don’t now any other style to do this trick
Didn’t work for me unfortunately.
After making the jumper wire did you reinstall ac plug before inserting jumper in 2nd top pin and attach to green ground? And what about coach battery? Was it reconnected before using jumper?
Thank you for the video!!!
Yea after getting cover back and out of the way you need to rebook up your 120 plug and 12v power. Witch ever you are running off.
The motherboard needs power then jump pin 2 to ground to reset
