I'm about to pull out all the hair I've got left and that ain't much. Our fridge will blow the 20amp fuse about every 3 days. It just started this. We are in the desert of Arizona and have been here for more than 30 days. I've looked at everything I can think of. Any ideas from you folks? I'll look at all suggestions. BTW, the fridge has worked perfect for the last year and a half.

Due to the heat , it is probably running hot and not getting enough air venting..check air vent for obstructions...also is fridge OK if you run it on gas? If all is OK when you run it on propane? If it is then your wires are getting heated up with electrical current...you might just need a new electrical connection or a cleanup of that area. I would check vent first, if electrical continues to blow fuses then switch to propane...you first have to isolate the method as to whether this runs--propane or electrical. Then I bet we can help.

Check the ground wire. Make sure it's clean and effective. It's not possible to over state how many times a poor ground is the cause of electrical problems.
