My fridge is making a noise almost like a fan is running. You can hear it on the outside of the camper. I've never heard it before. I opened up the access panel but didn't really see much. There are no fault codes and the fridge seems to be working fine. Is this normal? Do I need to be concerned? My camper is a 2007 K-Z Sportsmen.

Other than the doors, there are no moving parts in the refrigerator!

Some burners are loud enough to hear
It depends on the fridge model and your hearing

My Norcold will give me a fan-like noise when it working hard in really high heat and humidity temps. It quiets down to what I would call 'normal' when the outside temps cool down and if we don't open the doors frequently.

You can determine if it is a fan running by opening the fridge door. If it is the fan, it will stop when the door is open and resume when closed.
