Customer: I have a residential style fridge in my RV. It set with everything off for about a year. I just started using again and the refrigerator and freezer does not cool. Everything works on the electronic display and the fan. Just will not get cold. What should I do?
JA: What's the brand and model of your fridge?
Customer: whirlpool MODEL GI0FSAXVY012
JA: How long has this been going on with your WhirlPool refrigerator? What have you tried so far?
Customer: I hooked the RV back to power 2weeks ago. It has not cooled during that time. It worked perfectly when it was disconnected from power 1 year ago.
JA: Anything else we should know to help you best?
Customer: It runs in ac shore power when in the campground. It uses dc power (batteries) when being towed.

HI........
You are likely aware that you can typically get a Residential HVAC Repair person out that Tests Refrigerators or even drive to their shop to have it Tested
Many times you can locate same type or Brand and Model Number for less than Repair of the old one On-Line, Local or Marketplace
Typically it is the Refrigerant or even the pump that goes bad when the fridge sits with no use
.
Let me know if you need further.......
.
THANK YOU
Thanks for using J/A

Customer
Thanks I was afraid of that. I will get a serviceman to check it. Have a great day.

THANK YOU
That would be best, ***** ***** is nothing to check except the System ON, Temperature and IF the Pump comes ON
The Repair person would need to check that and Pressure to see what it takes to bring it back to normal

Hope it all works out

THANK YOU
Thanks for using J/a
