(it's usually located under the driver's seat, correct?) and no
connections for a battery, hence, no 12 volt backup system.
Might be why refer doesn't work on 12 volt, eh?  >>

   12 volt supply is only used to maintian cooling in the box when your
engine is running.  The fridge was not designed to be operated full-time
on 12 volts.  A second battery was not factory equipment for an '89.
