When you say it doesn't ignite are you able to hear the igniter clicking as it calls for the gas valve to turn on?  If you try the electric (shore power) mode does the cooling stack get warm after 30 minutes or so?  How long has it been since it functioned properly?  Do you have screens over the 2 vents on the back side of the fridge to keep out spiders, bees, and the like?  What happens after you hit for triangle button for 5-10 seconds to reset the fridge and the light goes off?  Does it come back on right away or does it stay off?

I don't recall the specific issue but there have been a couple of times when doing a reset -- turning the fridge completely off for a minute or so -- has gotten mine going again.

Do you have your battery connected to the trailer's 12v wiring and is the battery in good shape also charged up?  If it's not connected then I am quite sure that the fridge will not operate on gas and there is a possible that it will not function on 120v electric (shore power) and will not work on the battery mode.  The reason for that is that the fridge's control panel uses 12v to control the fridge's operation.  Hope this helps]]> Sat, 14 Jan 2023 13:24:33 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15576&PID=150605#150605 Dometic 3.7' 3 Way Refrigerator not working : First I want to say thanks to... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=15576&PID=150604#150604 Author: richbar4

First I want to say thanks to everyone on here for there contribution on this forum. I have been behind the scenes utilizing all the information on here to better my rpod experience.

I have a 2016 Rpod 179.  Recently, I went to turn on the refrigerator and I got the warning beep that you would typically here when your try to start with propane and it doesn't ignite the first go around.  Now my fridge gives me the warning beep weather its shore power, battery or propane.  The panel on the front still works and is getting power, it just seems like I cant get the cooling process started.  Has anyone had this happen before or have any things to check for? Thanks in advance.
