You probably have a Dometic, but Norcolds also use that flue tstat. Doug

I have not tried the LP option... good idea..I did not use magnet...this is a little tiny button...

The Norcold (1200/1210 ONLY) have the reset BOX. The normal flue temp is around 350 degrees, the Norcold box trips at 700 degrees. SUN/Outside temp will NOT cause the temp to go up to 700 degrees from 350 degrees. Doug

Norcold???? Did you use a magnet to RESET the indicator? (See instruction you find by GOOGLE).

I have a theory about those sensors.... They are .. of course.. thermostats.

And it's getting hotter out there folks. SUNLIGHT may be enough to overheat the blasted sensor now days if you get full evening sun (Which I happen to have just now) and the wrong color paint job.

what happens if you don't plug in to shore power and use the LP option ?

Thank you... sounds like flue temp sensor..
your help is greatly appreciated

IF it trips immediately you have a bad flue temp sensor. if it trips after running for hours, it may be a fault in the cooling unit and/or just a fault with the temp sensor. It has nothing to do with 120 volts or 12 volt supply. Doug

What he said :)

Has that same setup worked before ?
