I have been out five times in my 2022 170 MB without any problems.
Plugged in the trailer Thursday for a weekend overnight trip of about 400 miles. Went to start loading on Friday afternoon and noticed the refrigerator wasn't cold. Cycled the thermostat a few times, but never heard the compressor turn on. Checked the fuse box and the fuse was good. Checked battery voltage and it was at 13.2. Googled Furrion 12 volt refrigerator and found a few things. One is a hidden fuse that you have to pull out the fridge to replace, but before I went that far, I noticed the light was working. Looking at the wiring diagram shows that if that fuse is blown, the light wouldn't be coming on. Another tip I found was some low voltage shutdown. The supposed fix was to turn off the fridge, disconnect shore power and disconnect the battery. Wait 5 - 10 minutes and hook everything back up. Needless to say, it didn't work. Called my dealer who has it now.
I was still going so I filled the cooler with ice and headed out. Had a nice evening in the campground while my wife played bingo.
Sunday morning wife was in the bathroom doing whatever wives do in there. Of course she ran a lot of water in the sink. After she was done, I went in and the bathroom floor was covered in water. Opened up the vanity and the P trap was completely disconnected from the drain. Got it back together and when I got home I put a fan in the bathroom. Seems to be dry now.
My advice is to check your P traps for tightness.
Anyone else had problems with the furrion 12 volt refrigerators?

no idea about the fridge. but I have experienced the p trap issue. I thought I was through with rvs a few years ago. but came across a neat camper that met our needs. these trailers always have something going on. we just have to stay on top of fixing things. part of the adventure.

Got the word from my dealer that the fridge is toast. KZ has authorized a new fridge and its ordered, but they told me it might take a while. Anyone have any experience as to how long it takes to get parts from KZ?

Anyone have any experience as to how long it takes to get parts from KZ? Well it was only front decals but IIRC it was about 3 weeks. We’re up in Canada too. Replaced under warranty.
