On our Norcold, the electric still works, but upon advise from Paul Unmack with ARPrv, we have been running our fridge on gas alone for almost two years and have had no issues. He said gas heating the boiler in these fridges is more gentle on the steel tubing than is electric, which heats up almost instantly, where gas brings the steel up to temperature more slowly which is less likely to stress the steel and cause cracks. Don't know how really critical this is, but these fridges don't use that much gas, and if it helps lengthen the life of the cooling units, why not.
