Hi everyone,
Just a few clarifications based on the comments:
Altitude: I'm based on Santa Fe, NM (7,000 feet) and have used the fridge over the past two seasons with no issues at all. This included camping at and above the altitude described, never an issue.
Battery: a good theory, and the reason why I just replaced the batteries. Two new EverStarts from Walmart (group 24DC), but the standard ones: https://www.walmart.com/ip/EverStart-Lead-Acid-Marine-RV-Battery-Group-24DC/180350522.
Even when fully charged I still experience the fridge clicking and "check" issue. The video I linked to in my original post was taken when the battery was fully charged.
So maybe I need to get a higher cycling capacity battery? Is anyone familiar with these EverStarts?
I'll also try the tuneup you suggest @mchero. Any guidance there? I'll start with cleaning the flame sensor as you mentioned @ScottG
Thanks everyone. Will keep you posted.
