Two years ago, I had a rather large spider set up shop in the flue of my propane fridge.  When I lit the fridge, the spider (and his nest) cooked fairly well, mostly blocking the flue and preventing my fridge was staying lit.  Fortunately, a can of compressed air (for cleaning computers) was able to clear out the mess and my fridge has worked properly since.

You may or may not have a similar issue - but its worth checking.

How old is your fridge?  At 4 years old the LP mode has mostly stopped working.  New orifice, and the dealer says they think it is the gas valve.]]> Mon, 28 Jul 2014 23:21:00 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5059&PID=49124#49124 Using propane to run refrigerator : What is the state of your 12v... http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5059&PID=49066#49066 Author: furpod

What is the state of your 12v system?

The fridge MUST have 12v to run in ANY mode.

If it was put into propane mode and errored out for some reason, it needs to be reset before it will attempt to light. Turn it all the way off for 5 minutes turn back on, select gas mode.

The propane function on my refrigerator quit working. It has been perfect in the past, but just quit, does not attempt to light. Have bled the line, the cooktop and heater work fine. Any suggestions?]]> Mon, 28 Jul 2014 15:31:01 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=5059&PID=49064#49064
