Hi All. Curious if anyone had a similar experience with their Edgestar to what I am having. Any advice is much appreciated; I am leaving in 7 days for a week of camping in Utah, so I really need to get it running.
Recently got an Edgestar 43qt that was damaged during shipping (small dent). Plugged it into 110 and it ran like a champ, no problems over a few day period.
Today I installed it in my truck and when using the 12v cord that came with it and a 12ft 18ga wire extension (rated to 15amp) the fridge control panel will power on and light up, but the unit will not cool. Tried both a normal temp and flash freeze mode and the compressor doesn't turn on.
Any ideas on what the problem may be is greatly appreciated. I may try wiring up the fridge directly to the battery tomorrow to see if that solves the problem, but I am hoping I don't need to do that.
