hi

i would like to fit a led indicator lamp on the fridge top panel to
show it is on when connected to the car power, but i cannot seem to
find out how the fridge is held in.
does anyone know how to remove it, or at least put it out enough to
get at the top behing the panel.

I have fitted my LED just behind the external grill so that I do not 
have to go into the van to check all is ok. Might this be better and 
easier to fit?

If you really want to remove the fridge its held in with four screws two 
either side of the cabinet. You'll see the screw covers when you open the 
door. Then fit a pair of removal tools , and lift the fridge forward.

I bought a 12v LED and connected it across the 2 wires that go to the 
12v heater element.  Check for the correct polarity, it will not work if 
it's the wrong way round. On my caravan these wires are easily 
accessible just behind the grill. This way you get confirmation that the 
fridge is switched to 12v as well.
