Re: Dometic Refer Fridge Portion not Cooling
Replaced Eyebrow Board. Fridge now works on electric, and the temp this morning was 30deg. so now it's over cooling. just needs the thermistor adjusted down to dial in a good temp. So all problems fixed. seems like it was just the power switch all along, but now it has all new circuitry top to bottom. ~$180 total on amazon. Model is a DM2852RBX845Views0likes0CommentsRe: GM LLY Starter Grind
See my point exactly … they all say they replaced starters and flywheels, ( flex plates) and still getting same result. one guy said he replaced the starter 6 times and now its fixed … hard to believe that. maybe he finally got a good connection on his battery cable!?265Views0likes0CommentsGM LLY Starter Grind
I have read countless forum posts on GM Diesel Websites on this issue, but none have come up with a successful 100% fix RV's know stuff so I thought I'd try it here! :) Does anybody know officially how to fix the LLY GM 6.6l Diesel Starter grind issue. I have replaced the starter with aftermarket and Delco Starters. and have been told that the flex plate in the past was in good shape. I have read countless forum posts over the years that people have said the same things. but NOBODY has a post on a "this is the problem and I fixed it." My thoughts is it has to be an electrical voltage issue. I changed the relay under the hood, no change. If 3 or 4 different starters have the same result it can't be the starter. Now I am thinking the ignition switch ( not the key part but the part under that)or battery cables. When the truck was new it happened occasionally … as it has gotten much older it is more frequent.1.4KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Dometic Refer Fridge Portion not Cooling
Doug, Left running overnight with newly installed thermister. Freezer is at 10° fridge was cold below 50° but had to get to work, didn't have time to wait for the thermometer to fully read. But it is definitely colder than it was getting before the thermistor install. SO I believe my only remaining issue is why will it not flip over to electric? I checked the output voltage at Jumper 7 and 8 (I believe it is)and was not getting 120 but I am getting 120 though the fuse. I still believe I need to replace the upper control board. If I am not getting voltage to the heating element why hard wire it? you got to start at the source and work your way to the end. if I am getting voltage to it, and its still not cooling well then yes I need an element, but right now I am not getting power to the leads.845Views0likes0CommentsRe: Dometic Refer Fridge Portion not Cooling
Freezer is cold enough to freeze the milk i put in there to keep it cold. Replaced thermistor - now retesting. Also checked voltage at board for heating element and sill getting low voltage with new board. Could eyebrow board be bad also and not signaling the main board to go electric? So 2 problems 1 fridge isn't cooling and 2 it only works as gas. Either in gas only or auto mode. It goes to gas.845Views0likes0CommentsDometic Refer Fridge Portion not Cooling
I did a search to find this issue but turned up minimal. I have a 2011 Keystone Cougar 328 with a Dometic Refrigerator. The Freezer part seems to be cooling fine, but the Fridge might get down to a temp of 70. very minimal cooling. It also only seems to work on Gas. I replaced the main Circuit board. and no change. The Heating element is giving me a 44 ohms rating. I have a new Thermistor, but haven't had a chance to install yet. I did notice that the upper circuit board, If I touch the power switch just right it error light pops up. I assume I will need to replace the upper board as well. Is there a good way to test this board? I did read to check for an obstruction by taking the roof vent off. I do have a very serious dirt dobber / Wasp problem in the summer time around my property. Just looking for any other thoughts.4.1KViews0likes17Comments
