Dometic 2652 fine on 110v not on gas
I havent had any issues with the fridge until this year, it is a 2007 model and works great when plugged in, but, this weekend, went to turn it on and the pilot lights, clicks away for awhile, and the...

There may NOT be a thermocouple, contrary to my previous opinion and my experience with my own 2652.

It seems the newer Dometic units may not have a thermocouple. I "assumed" they all did.

Units that have integrated igniter do not have a thermocouple. The igniter senses the flame thru the electrode and communicates with the lower main control. The integrated igniter used on certain Dometic model refrigerators operates on 12 volt DC thru the control board. On gas operation the igniter senses the resistance through the flame between the electrode and burner. When there is no flame at the burner, the resistance is high and the igniter begins sparking to light the burner. As soon as the flame is lit, the resistance between the electrode and burner drops and the igniter stops sparking. The resistance is monitored by the igniter, and, if for any reason the flame goes out, the igniter begins sparking until the burner is lit.
