Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Fridge runs perfect on electricity but only the freezer works on gas

Hi

I have a Electrolux (Dometric) 3way fridge in my caravan.

The fridge works perfectly on 240 V but when running on Gas only the freezer section works.  The fridge section remains hot. I have replaced the regulator and cleaned out the burner line .. just don't understand why it wont work .. any ideas would be appreciated.

Might be the control board... I seem to remember that happened on one of my Dometics and I had to replace the control board.

Most RV Parts Store are able to test the boards.
