To be able to run the refrigerator on the 12 volt system while towing would be wonderful.

3-way operation of your present fridge will
not be possible if:
• your cooling unit does not have the extra steel tube to accept the 12VDC heating element
• your control board is not 3-way compatible with connections on the board to facilitate 12VDC operation
• you do not have sufficient 12VDC wiring available to handle the amp draw of the 12VDC heating element.
All of the above will be required for a conversion from 2-way to 3way operation.
