waeco problem

The 240v problem through the transformer plug. On one of my transformers the plug connection from the fridge into the transformer is loose so I have to tape it in to ensure a good connection.

3 or 4 flashing is often caused by low voltage, usually when the compressor is starting and drawing the most amount of power.

Yes, it should not cut out on 240 unless you have a bad connection at the plug or bad connection at a fuse? (do Waeco's have fuses)

4 weeks old, I would just take it back.

Hi Chucky D

Have a look at what the waeco error codes mean in Reply 3 here:waeco error codes

I am also not sure a dual battery setup will solve your 12V problems unless it is done correctly with correct size cable etc. With a Waeco you can simply purchase a waeco product and connect it up to whatever battery you want (ie: existing starting or aux when its set up. If you leave cable long enough you can move from starting to other when you are ready to) Have a look here for more info:

waeco RAPS unit

There is an Exploroz member that sells these (and other 4WD, Rv etc gear) If you want his details let me know. He helped me out with the Raps and it solved all my problems immediately and was very simple to install, cheers ....

Hi I had a similar problem. It turned out to be a faulty lead.

hey guys thanks heaps for your replies it now makes a little more sense,
because it cuts out on both 12v and 240v I'm thinking it might be 5 flashes which means not enough ventilation or very hot surroundings........
I have the fridge in my ute between 2 tool boxes (they are off the tray so were the vents are the boxes aren't) and i live in one of the most hottest places in OZ, the very top of WA 40 deg today with very high humidity.

so I need to park in the shade more often and don't obstruct the vents.
at least i think that's the prob. i'll try that and see what happens.

THANKS ALL!!!!!

or if there is any further advice I'd love to hear it.
