What does it mean when the error light flashes twice on my ARB Refrigerator?
- Z
  Zachary WagnerSep 4, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator does not run, and the error light flashes twice every 5 seconds, it could be due to a few reasons. The fan might not be correctly connected to the compressor control unit, so check the fan wiring to ensure the "+ve" and "–ve" fan wires are properly connected. Alternatively, the fan itself could be faulty, in which case you should test and replace it if necessary. Lastly, the compressor control unit might be faulty, requiring testing and potential replacement.

Why is the interior light not working in my ARB Refrigerator?
- M
  Maxwell WilliamsAug 25, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator's interior cabinet light does not work, it could be due to several reasons. The interior light globe may have blown, so replace it. There might be no power to the fridge, so ensure that either 12/24V DC or 100-240V AC power is being supplied. A faulty main circuit board or light switch could also be the cause, requiring testing and potential replacement of the circuit board or cabinet assembly.

Why is the lid of my ARB 78L Refrigerator hard to open?
- S
  Shannon VaughnAug 26, 2025
  If the lid of your ARB Refrigerator is hard to release from the body, the hinge assembly may have become contaminated with dirt. Carefully remove the lid, clean any dirt or grit from the hinge sockets, and service the hinge assembly.

What to do if my ARB 78L Refrigerator has no power with 12/24V DC and the light doesn't work?

  If your ARB Refrigerator is not getting power from a 12/24V DC supply and the interior light isn't working, there could be several reasons. It could be a blown interior light globe, a blown 12/24V DC plug fuse (which should be replaced with a T8 Amp 32V fuse), a fault with the 12/24V DC fridge power lead (check and replace if necessary), a poor connection of the plug to the socket, no power to the supply socket, the DC supply voltage being too low, incorrect polarity of the fridge power circuit, or a poor electrical connection inside the fridge. Check each of these to resolve the issue.

Why does the compressor stop and the error light flash on my ARB 78L?
- E
  Emily YoungAug 27, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator's compressor stops, the LED display is visible, and the error light flashes once every 5 seconds, it means the compressor stopped because the battery cut-out voltage was reached. To solve this, verify the correct battery protection setting is selected. Also, ensure the vehicle wiring is adequate. Check the battery voltage and the voltage at the supply socket, and make sure the plug is correctly installed into the socket at the back of the fridge and into the vehicle's supply socket. You can also test the fridge on 100-240V AC to confirm it's operating correctly.

How to fix a digital display that is not visible on ARB Refrigerator?
- A
  Amanda RussellAug 28, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator is running, but the digital display is not visible, the control panel circuit board may be faulty. To resolve this, test the fridge with a new control panel circuit board, and replace it if the issue is resolved.

Why is the latch on my ARB Refrigerator hard to disengage?
- B
  Bryan TrevinoSep 9, 2025
  If the latch on your ARB Refrigerator does not easily disengage from the lid, it could be due to the high-quality seal causing the lid to sit away from the fridge cabinet; press down slightly on the lid to help disengage the latch. Alternatively, the latch itself may be faulty; inspect the latch and latch pivot for damage, and replace the latch assembly if necessary.

Why does the lid of my ARB 78L Refrigerator open while driving?
- A
  Amy SpencerSep 10, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator's lid opens during transit, first, ensure that the latch was correctly closed before transportation. If the issue persists, inspect the latch and latch pivot for damage, and replace the latch assembly if necessary, as the latch may be faulty.

Why does the device fuse in my ARB 78L Refrigerator keep blowing?
- M
  Ms. Kimberly BrownSep 3, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator's device fuse repeatedly blows, it could be due to a short circuit in the 100-240V AC fridge cable. Check the cable's continuity and replace it if it's faulty or damaged. Another cause could be a short circuit between the "L" and "N" terminals on the compressor control unit; check for this. Lastly, an unregulated or fluctuating power supply, such as from an engine-driven generator, might be the issue. Ensure the generator has a voltage regulator and supplies a standard, pure sine wave AC voltage without fluctuations.

What to do if I can't change the temperature on my ARB Refrigerator?
- R
  Ronald FloresSep 1, 2025
  If your ARB Refrigerator runs but you cannot change the target temperature, the control panel circuit board may be faulty. To resolve this, test the fridge with a new control panel circuit board, and replace it if the issue is resolved.
