Re: [A/S] I finally got one!
Wow, that *really* is neat!
< I had never had a three way...always a two way. But I
figured if I am getting a new one I would check out
the options. I take it the 12 volt doesn't do the
job. According to the PO the original frig works on
electric just fine. For some reason he could not get
the gas to light. The last thing I want to have
happen is to have it fixed and then have it go kaput
in the middle of a trip.>>
You know, I never use the gas when I'm on a trip.... I am always hooked up to
electric when I'm not driving and have no problems. If you shut the doors and
don't open them til you get plugged back in you don't need the gas at all. My
ice cubes stay frozen, have never had food go bad....
If you plan to boondock or drive for 20 hours at a time you will need gas
though. It could be something simple like the thermocoupler (sp?)
< before I buy a new one. How many of you out there are
still running refrigerators that are over 20 years old? >>
The Dometic fridge in my 1973 Arogosy MH was still working fine when I sold
it four years ago.
