Dometic 2652 ramdomly shutting off while on LP
I have a ~10yr old Dometic 2652 that I replaced the cooling unit on last year. Following the cooling unit replacement the fridge has worked the best it ever has in terms of quickly cooling down and keeping things cold.
On a trip this last weekend we ran into a new issue where the unit will randomly shut off while in gas mode. I have my wife restart the unit and from the back access panel I can see the pilot re-light then within a couple of seconds I can hear what sounds like a relay or something coming from the control panel click which shuts down the pilot lite. After multiple attempts to get it to restart, I end up having to re-light the unit with a hand lighter in order to get it to stay going for any amount of time. Within a day it will shut off again and we have to go through the same procedure to get it lit again. Any ideas on where to start diagnosing?
