Decent little aftermarket board for your Norcold absorption fridge. This board fits almost all models of absorption fridge Norcold made. 15 minute swap if your sure your board is bad.I am a certified RV tech and have seen a lot of these aftermarket boards. This one seems pretty good. It has the 120VAC glass fuse protection and also a 5VDC ATC style fuse for the 12VDC side. Small MOV (metal oxide varistor) is just to the right of the 12VDC fuse, so it does have some (not much?) surge protection. If you ever need to change the 12V fuse, be careful to not break the solder joint on the MOV (the round red disc next to it. Do that and you lose your surge protection (but the board will likely still be working - for a while anyway). Board build quality is OK, but it is bare - there is no conformal coating on the board to help protect it from moisture, etc. Also means it is easy to get FOD that may short out components, etc. Still, it is in an enclosed environment, so maybe that is enough. Would have liked to see it though.Plugged into my test bed and it worked fine. Communicated with the HTMS (high temp monitor system) and the eyebrow board, and fired up. I will leave in my test bed for a while to see if I have any issues down the road.Also, many manufacturers of these aftermarket boards provide instructions on removal/replacement. This comes with no such instructions. Personally, I don't care - I replace these regularly and know the connections in my sleep. But if you take a pic or two and go slow, you should be fine.What makes this a great value is the price. These can be found for typically about a third the price of the OEM part. Up to you if you are willing to take one that MAY be compatible and last as long or not.
