Dometic rm3501 freezing everything on propane

[pipimiller]

Hello, trying to find info on my older dometic but not have much luck.  Frig is freezing everything in frig on low setting.  It does not cycle on and off on propane.  If I plug in AC the propane still stays lit while on AC.  If I shut off the frig the gas remains lit unless i manually shut of gas.  Not even sure if I can get parts for this model.  Anyone point me in the right direction?  Thanks

Hi,

It sounds like you're dealing with a couple of issues with your older Dometic fridge. If it's freezing everything on a low setting and not cycling properly on propane, there might be a problem with the thermostat or the control board.

Given that the propane stays lit when AC is plugged in and remains on even after turning off the fridge, it might be worth checking the gas valve or the ignition system. Parts for older models can be tough to find, but you might have some luck with specialized RV parts suppliers or online forums dedicated to RV repairs.

Consider reaching out to a local RV repair shop or contacting Dometic directly for guidance.

Thanks for reply.  Had a rv tech trouble shoot it today.  He says its the gas valve/solenoid.  Tried looking on the internet for one and haven't had much luck.  Will keep looking.
