ARB Fridge App Connect Module
ARB Fridge App Connect Module
The ARB Fridge App Connect Module is a plug-in Bluetooth transmitter that adds phone control to ARB fridge freezers built after 2014. It pairs to the free ARB Fridge Connect app on iOS or Android, so you can set the target temperature, switch the fridge on or off, and read the fridge's status from across the campsite instead of bending over the front panel.
It works with any ARB fridge freezer built after 2014. On a Series II fridge you get full control: set temp manually or by preset, toggle Celsius or Fahrenheit, dim the display, and watch input voltage and compressor status. On a Classic Series I (post-2014), the module is monitor-only: it shows temperature, input voltage, and compressor status, but you still set temps on the fridge itself.
The module plugs in alongside the existing display, so nothing gets removed or rewired. If your rig runs ARB LINX, update LINX to v1.4 or newer and the fridge control folds straight into the in-cab LINX screen at no extra cost.

- Full control on Series II fridges: on/off, set temp (manual or preset), C/F switch, display brightness

Use cases
Most owners use it to check and set the fridge without opening the rig — from the driver's seat on a long drive or from camp at the end of the day. It also doubles as a quick battery sanity check: the live input-voltage readout shows when your house battery is sagging, so a fridge cutout never catches you by surprise.

Will this work with my existing ARB fridge or only new ones?
It works with any ARB fridge freezer built after 2014. On a Series II fridge you get full app control. On a Classic Series I from 2014 or later, the module is monitor-only.
What can I do from the app?
On a Series II fridge: turn it on or off, set the target temperature manually or by preset, switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit, dim the display, and read input voltage and compressor status. On a Series I, you can read temperature, voltage, and compressor status only.
Does it replace the fridge's display?
No. It plugs in alongside the existing front panel and adds Bluetooth and app control. Nothing is removed or rewired.
Is the app reliable?
The ARB Fridge Connect app is functional and plain: set temp, monitor power, toggle presets. Some users report an occasional Bluetooth reconnect, usually fixed by reopening the app. Read the pairing PIN before you plug the module in so it pairs cleanly the first time.
