    Not sure if proper place but I don't have much time. parked at a Wal-Mart and my reefer has a yellow light and the alarm light on on the control panel. called the shop and they told me I can either bring it back where I picked it up at to get fixed (picked it up at a shop) or go get loaded as it's holding temp so far (32 continuous) and I'm not really sure what I should do. I don't pick up till 3 I'm an hour or so away from where I picked it up (I figured yellow was due to high box temps when I sstarted cooling it down) and from there I'd be an hour and a half 2 hours out from my pick up. sugestions?

    Never mind..... I fixed it. it was stupid.... it was for when I first set the temp and forgot to hit the accept change button the first time.....

    Always remember to hit ENTER / Accept, after everytime.

    I'm wondering did you do an induction with the reefer when you started the job? A place I worked at once used to have a sign up which said "Better to ask a silly question than to make a stupid mistake" Glad you got it working right
