Hi everyone!

My brother in law has an Allegro RV with a dometic fridge that is getting cold on EHU but won't get cold on gas. He has changed the thermo coupler and cleaned out the burner and it now lights but it's still not getting cold.

Has anyone had the same problem?

My brother in law is going to cancel our family holiday to France if he can't get it to work! I told him not to worry as I know some clever people who are always happy to help! - Thanks for any replies and advice in advance!

An old trick with fridges is to take them out and turn them upside down for 24 hrs and also while out check out the bottom ventilation in the floor or side wall. It is very inportant that a good flow of air pases up through the rear of the fridge and does not cause any heat build up.

Some even fit 12v computor type fans to aid the flow of air in the ventilation behind the fridge. If all this fails,check how old the fridge is, it could be just worn out, and may be worth replacing rarther than paying for a complete rebuild by a gas engineer.
