Thermal cutout disc....red wires Dometic Recall to trip DC power to fridge if high temp sensed due to cracked boiler tube. It is a safety device and if tripping you should check for yellow residue around burner area...
IF with a proper flame fridge will not cool down (or even on electric) if cooling unit is cracked/leaked.
So bypassing the Thermal Cutout could be dangerous due to overheating

Dometic RV Fridge Flame.....they are NOT big roaring flames. MAIN Flame is small....no pilot flame used
Top one is dirty burner-------bottom one is after cleaning
