Dometic fridge problem.

August 03, 2014, 01:13:26 pm

Am looking after a friends SOB with the same fridge as our '95 has.    Was working OK on AC.  Checked it a few days later and it was not working.  Threw away food.

Here are the symptoms:

Switch ON
On light ON
AC light OFF
Gas light OFF
Temp level 3 LIGHTS

Tried turning off & on a few times.  No result.

Bad board?  Reset procedure available?

Ideas please.

Keith, Some of the boards in these have fuses on the board.  Pull the cover off and check.
If no AC voltage at the heaters then suspect board.
Bypass board with pigtail from AC source to heaters , if no cooling probably refrigerator coils, loss of coolant.

Lights run on 12V. Sounds like you don't have AC where the fridge plugs in. What fridge? Does it run ok on propane?
