> Fridge Fan ?

       The fridge fan is connected directly to the battery.  Its feed is 
ALWAYS hot.  The fan should come on any time the temperature behind the 
fridge reaches the point that sets off the thermostat.  About 80 ~ 90 degree 
F, I think.  For the fridge to work properly the area behind the fridge must 
be kept cool to expel the heat from the heat transfer fins.  See these 
websites for more details and ways to improve your fridges operation.
