Have you tried plugging it in for =
awhile ---
preferably overnight to get the
intake and exhaust air cycling --- =
this
definitely makes it easier to
light.
Cheers,
Doug

Fridge won't light
Hey, List. I need help with my =
fridge
which stopped working on propane during
my last camping trip. =
It will
not light, but will work on 120V and 12V. The
fridge worked =
fine on
propane for the first 5 days of the trip. It lit up
quickly =
and the
fridge cooled down nicely. Then, during the night of the =
6th
day, the
propane pilot light went out and I have not been able to get it =
to
light
since. There is plenty of propane in the tank.
I'm familiar =
with
these dometic fridges and hope someone has a tip that will
make it
light. I hope not to have to take it out of the cabinet. =
I've
tried
several things ----1) lighting a burner first, 2) holding in =
the
ignition
control button (B) for approx 20 secs before actuating the =
airpump
multiple
times, 3) blowing air thru the drain pipe under the fridge =
before
pumping and
trying to ignite, etc.
Any help would be
appreciated.
