Fridge Inop on Propane
thats a good way to check the circuit board. is there not a prompt of the c-board that shuts off the gas valve when heat is not felt after a period of time?



on the subject of refers and gas. the aftermarket mod I made and fan I use to vent my refer mechanicals in low pointing up to the vent and over the coil. I shrouded the boiler to keep from passivly cooling it with the fan. my fan pressurizes the compartment and pushes air out the roof vent. I like the way Scot positioned a fan in the stack blowing out because it wont pressurize the unburnt gas into the coach. Now I am concerned about the low resting fan becoming a spark igniter for unburned heavey LPG. the unobstructed step down below the floor that the refer vent opens to reveal is a functional design to exhaust heavy gas.
