Everything seems to be working now, stayed cool over night using electrical hooked to the house. The fridge light still works on and off though. When I pull the fuse and reinstall the light comes on for awhile, then goes off and stays off. I took it apart (the light) and everything seems to be ok. Dealer can not figure it out without bringing the unit in. Since the fridge is working I am not going to take it in for the light just yet. I want to get it on the road and see if there are any more kinks that come up.

We found that one of those little $20 battery powered fan things increased efficiency for cool down time and keeping the freezer frozen.

My frig has 5 LED lites...when all 5 lites are lit...up from the bottom...maximum cooling is indicated.
The lites are also covered with a smoke-brown plastic cover...and the upper two lites are nearly obscured by a darker portion.  More than once I have been mistaken in thinking that all the lites are on...when only the lower three are lit, especially when bright sunlight is shining into the Pod.
I always felt that the LED lites were egonomically reversed...I would have preferred a row of lites that are progressively lit from top to bottom to indicate colder temps.  Rather the lites indicate the 'effort' of the frig to cool...lites progressively lit from bottom to top.
I also use one or two battery powered frig fans to keep cold air from pooling on the bottom of the frig.

The interior light will go out after maybe 2 minutes, but once you close the door and reopen it they should turn back on.
