What's wrong?
In these 2013-2021 Grand Design Momentum, Solitude, and Reflection recreational vehicles, a 110-volt Romex wire runs through the refrigerator cabinet. That wire is household-style electrical wiring. It is supposed to stay secured to the sidewall and away from the refrigerator cooling unit, which gets hot during normal operation.
The problem starts when the wire's securement loosens over time from road vibration. If the wire moves into contact with the heated cooling unit tube, the heat can damage the wire insulation. Damaged insulation leaves the wire exposed enough to arc, and that electrical arc can start a fire.
Owners can notice the circuit breaker supplying power to the microwave tripping repeatedly. That repeated breaker trip is the warning sign Grand Design identified before the wire damage leads to arcing.
