DOMETIC ELITE / Thanks guys and Doug!

Model Number: RM 7832

Folks need some help / advise on my DOMETIC. I recently had a rebuilt system installed in my frig (approx 5 months ago when I was in CA).

A few nights ago I noticed a clicking sound which I traced to the rear of the Frig. I then noticed the light above the frig flickering or switching back and forth to the AC and Gas modes.

The frig is (or was since I turned it off. Don't want a short like my water heater that caught on fire) cooling, and freezer is frozen.

Is there a reset that can cure this, or am I going to bite the bullet and buy a new control board.

Thanks,

Pops

    Just for giggles have your tried a power-on reset

    Set the refrigerator controls to "OFF".
    Unplug the refrigerator dc power
    Wait 20 minutes.
    Re-connect dc power.

    Also...do you have any fluorescent lights in kitchen?



    Yeah I know, the whole dang coach is 16 - 17 years old. That's what I keep tell'in myself when I have to shell out money to fix sum'tun! .... :B

    The frig is off, so I'll try the unplug an pray for 20 minutes right now, then see what happens!

    Thanks!

    PS I think I should'ah went with the residential frig route in lieu of rebuilding the frig.
