Fridge issue
Dry camping this weekend at Martinsville Speedway. Went to turn the fridge on, no 12v power (no control, no fridge light). Did a little poking around the back of the unit testing voltage and found 12v power coming in (goes to a plastic box with the +/- coming in).
From the output side of said plastic box the + side goes to a (please excuse my terminology) metal can on the right side with a plug looking device riveted into it. From there the wire comes back out and goes to the mother board. Where it plugs into the board there is no 12v, however where it plugs into the metal can there is 12v power.
So, I bypassed the plug looking thing on the metal can and ran the + side directly to the mother board, now I have power to the fridge, it will run on generator power. Here's the issue, when I switch the fridge to gas the flame comes out like your holding your finger on a lighter, not jetting out like it should.
I'm guessing the issue is with the (plug) on the metal can??? Does anyone know what that part is? Or have any idea what I'm talking about?
