Leaving town in 2 wks, big move, towing my car for the first time, and fridge is not working right. Very stressed out!
Its a 6 cubic ft Dometic 2-way fridge, Americana model. Separate freezer door. Some ice on fins probably due to heavy rains in Los Angeles this past month.
I cleaned out with an air compressor, the exterior coils, flues, burner area. Not familiar with intricacies of cleaning, just blew air everywhere to remove debris. Set the fridge to gas switch. Tapped the burner rod, and it suddenly came on. However, 5 mins later, it shut off and Check light came on inside.
What could this be? I'm parked on a fairly level spot, and cannot figure this out. I can save on costly repairs if I do this myself, so please help with some advice!! Its very hard to get an RV repair shop in this big city. All booked up for months and astronomically high rates! I would appreciate some feedback from anyone who has resolved this issue too. :-[
