Furrion Arctic 8 and 10 6 Flashes: Controller Hardware Fault
6 FLASHES
Furrion Arctic 8 and 10 6 Flashes: Controller Hardware Fault
The inverter board detected abnormal readings inside itself. Sometimes a reset clears it; if not, the board has failed.
Before you start
- Pull it out first. Most of these tests need the fridge slid out of its cabinet and the back cover off.
Fits these models
The Furrion Arctic 8 cu ft (FCR08DCGTA) and 10 cu ft (FCR10DCGTA) 12V compressor refrigerators, in every door finish and hinge side. The second number under each model is its Lippert part number.
How to read this code
6 flashes, then a pause. The Arctic has no display. This code comes from the inverter board on the compressor, and you read it with a small test LED.
- Disconnect power, slide the fridge out and take off the back cover. The inverter board is on the compressor; its terminals are labeled −, +, F+, F−, D, C, P, T.
- Connect the LED’s negative leg (cathode, the flat edge) to terminal D. Nothing else is plugged in there.
- Connect the positive leg (anode) to the + terminal without unplugging its wire: slide the rubber sleeve back and clip onto the metal connector.
- Reconnect power and wait at least 5 minutes. Count the flashes before each pause.
You need a 10 mA LED and alligator clips or a spade-terminal jumper. No flashes? Recheck the connections, then see the intermittent-operation flowchart.
STEP 1
Power it down
Turn the fridge off and disconnect power for at least 15 minutes, then reconnect and restart.
Does the code come back?
Fixed
Reinstall it and confirm it cools. Running the fridge while it’s stored can overheat it and cause lockouts.
Replace the inverter board
It’s the compressor control board mounted on the compressor behind the back cover.
