refrigerator and furnace started back working. After our trip he put the switch back in place. Lakeside rv said the switch / recall has nothing to do with the furnace/frig not working. After calling again this summer , they made an appointment to look at our camper and "work on the furnace". I told them the furnace is not the problem .
