    Man you saved the day! Just bought this year old camper and the fridge wouldn't run on gas, watched the video and went to work trouble shooting, the gas valve was vertical not horizontal! Turned the valve, works like a charm! You da man! Love TH-cam!

    Thank you Darren, I was able to fix my fridge I had some technicians coming to check it out? They made me to get a new mother board, I had to change it myself, still didn’t worked and told me I had to change my fridge and the problem was very simple the valve was off I figured out just by watching your video , I can’t believe how simple the problem was and how people try to scam us new campers, thanks for the video once again and wish you lots of blessings

    I helped a friend with her dometic frig. After several minutes of head scratching the problem was staring me in my face. There was a mut daubers nest in the burner tube. It was so well formed that it looked like it belonged there. After I removed the plug, the burner lit and functioned well. Thanks for all the great information.

    My fridge stopped working, I watched your video which gave me an understanding of the fridge, when I took the shield off the igniter, there were chunks of carbon blocking where the flame goes up. Cleaned those out and it works fine! Thanks for the help.

    Darren is amazing person, who has helped me via remote assistance from the USA! I am UK based and I have contacted him after my fridge stopped cooling. Unfortunately cooling unit is not reparable and getting part to the UK is very expensive. I would recommend Darren to anyone who has any issues with RVs, he is full of knowledge and knows 100% what he is doing! 5 *

    I found it helpful to have an overview/summary of the sequence of what happens to start the flame: 1. a control unit, 2. activates ignition module, 3. generates spark & 4. opens gas valve, and flame then lights to 5. satisfy the flame being lit via ionization probe at the burner so the spark stops. Getting this from John B.: Ideal Boiler Function + . . . In addition to the VERY good videos at MYRVWORKS about how to check the various components made a big difference to me. ALSO: I suspect some of the online manuals may be a bit out of date because my Dometic 8501 on a 2018 R-Pod 179 has a Polyswitch showing Typ: P870 rather than the P860 and the display on front of the refrig is different. Gas burner lighting processes are very similar whether water tank heating, furnace, or refrigerator. Darren is my favorite RV expert!!!

    Very informative. Thanks so much for posting this. I've got the same issue with a Dometic RM3804 and am here just doing a little research before I dig into it. I hope my issue is as simple as this one turned out to be. This is my first foray into RV fridge repair so I've got a learning curve to overcome, but I've been down that road before with RV furnaces, water heaters and solar/battery systems with good success, so am looking forward to learning about these fridges. I'm so thankful for TH-cam and videos like yours. Thanks again.

      A little more information on my problem. I bought this used Alpenlite in 2009 and the former owners had replaced the refrigerator right before I bought it. I took it home and turned it on and it has worked fine all these years, but it has always been on AC power. I am now going to take the rig on the road and discovered that if I switch it to LP, I get an error light and no flame. I never heard the piezo ignition coming on but then again I was inside the rig so am not sure if it tried to light or not. The manual gas valve doesn't have a knob on it so I am not sure if it's in the "on" or "off" position. I will do some troubleshooting on it today and hope to have better information later.

    I just had to tell you your video was more helpful than the forum post I put on RV net trying to get similar information. you analysis the system and come up with a logical solution. As an engineer I can relate to that. Which I followed along with and was able to repair my unit successfully. RV net people kept telling me to hard wire heating element. if I am not getting power to the jumpers supplying the heating element, that's my first issue …. if I am getting power and its still not cooling well then yes we need to check the element, Long story short replaced the main board upper board and thermistor and its working like new. turns out I think the upper board was all that was bad but I did it all. SO THANK YOU for your video!

    • @MyRVWorks
      @MyRVWorks  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Michael,
      When you state it is not working - not working on electric, not working on LP or not working on either?
      A simple thing to check - there will be 12 VDC feeding the control board on the back of the frig. Verify that you have 12 VDC at that point and you may find a fuse on the frig control board as well. Also don’t forget the breaker/fuse panel (in the coach) too.
      If you do not have 12 VDC feeding the control board, try to determine where the trail stops. After you verify the fuses you may find on some Dometic refrigerators there is a high temp reset on the boiler (chimney looking thing). Also, on some there is a thermal fuse that is tucked back behind the main burner. Those are two areas you may find the 12 Volt trail ending.
      Let me know what you find and what model frig you are working with and I can help take this further if you are still stuck.
      Another resource for you is on my website we are creating an online manual library. Here is the link. I don’t have all my manuals uploaded yet but keep checking. myrvworks.com/manuals/
      Cheers,
      Darren Koepp

    That was the best videoing I’ve seen on your videos. I could see where your probes were touching because of close enough- close ups. It’s not always easy to see close ups on videos that demonstrate control board diagnostics.

  • @Natedoc808
    @Natedoc808 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks for the video! Mine quit on both 120v and LP, turned out the high temp cutout got tripped (was only 116*F yesterday) and shut the whole operation down! In this situation without the exact wire to replace you could easily butt splice a fresh section of appropriate wire in.

    I always learn something. There is a magic when someone shares a point of view or makes you think a thought you've never thought before... I've never considered the drip line being a LEAK to the outside before. If I had a 10mm - 15mm hole in the front of my fridge door, you better believe I'd plug it.

    THANK YOU! You helped tremendously. My fridge was powering on and I troubleshot it with your help. The problem ended up being that I had no gas in the tank, lol, but I went through your troubleshooting and I determined that the spark was good, so I knew the issue was not the refrigerator itself, it was something before it. Then me, being the dinklebrain I am, realized my propane tank might have been empty. So I exchanged it with a known full tank and voila!

    We have a 3 way Dometic Refrigerator from the 70's that freezes everything. There is a bulb type temperature sensor inside the refrigerator that goes to a combination gas and electric thermostat in the propane line to the burner. Have you done a video on troubleshooting that thermostat? I like your videos as you explain things clearly.

    I can't thank you enough for this video. I was able to check everything and confirm I had power to everything but it just would never go tick tick tick tick tick tick tick...I also had propane to the gas stove and heater so that wasn't the issue. I buttoned it all up and went out later after it had warmed up and thought I would look at it again. I unplugged the shore power, came around the corner and heard it going tick tick tick and it finally lit after about 20-30 seconds! It was cold out in the morning, about 33 degrees, it had warmed up in the afternoon to around 62 degrees. Could there have been some moisture that turned to ice crystals that was preventing it from igniting or even trying to ignite? Weird but this video helped me confirm that for all intents and purposes, it should have lit! Thank you!!!
    PS. I forgot to add that this is a brand new unit and I was taking it out for it's first trip and I had already tested that it would function on both AC power and propane so it's not like it never worked.

    @shaukeki 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I just pulled my RV out of storage. It has a Dometic Americana 2 way, and everything behind it looks pretty much identical to what you just had. It worked great in November when we put it away. Today, not so much. I haven't tested it on gas yet, however the ignition attempt was made when I switched to gas. For now, it's on shore power, so we keep it on 120V. The power light comes on in auto mode. It's not attempting to go to gas and the check light doesn't come on in auto mode. I don't hear any condenser/compressor sounds, although I can't say it was ever particularly noticeable. My wife is an ICU nurse, and we got the camper out early as a staging/potential quarantine house for her. We may need the fridge to work, so she can have it for drink and snacks. She won't need any more inconvenience if she's stuck in there away from the family.
    Does anybody on here have any idea where I should begin? It's raining, so I will check fuses tomorrow. Any help would be great.

    @unenslaver1333 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Dometic RM3801 appears to have a reverse pulse send to the gas solenoid when you turn off the power from the front panel.
    Mine continues to cool/run with propane even after the thermostat shuts off.
    I even disconnected the plug to the gas solenoid and the flame continued until I tapped on the valve.
    If I shut the power switch off, it always closes the gas valve.
    Diagnosis is a burr or gunk on the plunger or a broken return spring.
    Going to take the unit apart and investigate.
    Gas valve stays on until panel power switch is shut off.
    Very interesting.

Gas LED on the AUTO / GAS vertical LEDs not working, but oh well. If I had a rivet gun & some AL rivets, I'd investigate, but as they say, if it's not broke (other than the light) don't fix it.

    The heating element was suppose to be 44 ohms, two new ones tested at 41 ohms out of plastic. I record info from new products.
    Always take readings from coils on autos so i know what numbers are out of wack.
    Once had a thunder bird car, the coil would get hot every five miles, i would dip in a cup of water to cool, and car would stop, got me across that desert majave

    *48000* people have watched this *Dometic!* I've just carted one of your fridges out to the Essex coast to be used in a holiday home initially not to work through.... A piece of filter paper like wadding stuck in the gas inlet hole, I imagine from manufacture, which could have been potentially very dangerous. Having cleared that out using a screw I was then stuck with a fridge that still didn't work despite 2 ever more drastic attempts to shorten pipe length thinking that the problem might have been a pressure issue but down to about 30 cm & still no joy!
    Totally hacked off as had been expecting & mates demanding ice cold beers for beach Barbie!
