Fridge/Propane

My Dometic refrigerator when on propane ( Auto ) kicks on and shuts off in a few minutes, propane tank was just filled, shows full . Manual trouble shooting said shut fridge on and off a few times might have air in lines, that didnt work any ideas ???? Thank You Glenn

    Maybe so, but we should at least give him a full 24 hours to respond.

    We don't even know if the OP has propane. He disappeared.

    I agree with rk911, but before running the stove burners turn off the valves at the tank. Disconnect the hoses, wait a few seconds and then reconnect. If you have two tanks and an auto switching regulator; Make sure the lever is all the way one way or the other.

    slowly turn on the tank valve. If two tanks turn on both valves. Now light the stove burners and let them burn for 15-20 seconds then turn off.

    Try the refrigerator again and let us know if it's fixed. If not tell us how it's behaving now and we can give more suggestions.

    to clear air in the line light the burners on your stove and let them burn for 30-60 seconds.
