    I got a t700 and it seems every time I come home the fridge gets hot and I have to let it idle some to keep my food from getting hot. Any ideas?

    it could be like my boss has our trucks set up that when u turn off the truck, everything shuts off except for the few things that don't draw much amperage. that's just 1 scenario

    The fridge knows you are home so it takes "Home Time Too"? :biggrin_25512: That is a good one, you don't have a APU I assume? So you don't shut the truck down except when you are home? It may be set up to not power things like that for extended lengths of time, so the batteries will stay charged? Someone will know exactly what it is, if you wait long enough. Good Luck!

    slap a good 100+ amp battery charger on the batteries when you are at home.

    Mine does same thing every weekend. It's cause the batteries will start to shut off non essential components after so long. I never have had a problem overnight tho. You got to think it may only be 70 outside but in a closed up truck it gets a lot warmer also.
