I'll look behind the crisper for the number.  The oil build up in the lines is something I haven't noted but ill check that out. I have noted a sooty build up and weird smell so maybe thats the oil burning off.<br />]]>

Look behind there for the model information<div><br></div><div>As for getting cold, cleaning the burner/chimney tube is important as is cleaning the orifice (no pins, needles, etc.) with rubbing alcohol. You may also have an oily build-up in your gas lines. Remove the gas line from the back of the refrigerator and from the regulator. With the regulator end of the tube in a bucket, use a compressor to blow air from the refrigerator end. You will likely be surprised at how much oily liquid is in there. Reassemble and test for leaks. Then purge the lines and see if it makes a difference. It did for me.</div>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.rpod-owners.com/member_profile.asp?PF=2406" rel="nofollow">Sekots</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> 14910<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 02 Sep 2021 at 12:19pm<br /><br />Hi, I have a 2012 R-Pod RP177 with Dometic refrigerator. Can't find a tag that identifies the model number or serial number.  I looked in the interior along the sides per what if found on line.  I had trouble with this unit.  It does not appear to get as cold as when it was new.  I have to leave it turned up all the way to get it just below 40 degrees.  When the temperature really goes up ie 100 degrees outside which is common for my camping conditions it struggles to maintain 40 something.  Originally I had to be careful not to freeze the lettuce if it was turned up to high.<br /><br />So to get a new mother board I need the model number.<br />thanks]]>
